Heat recovery from boiler exhaust gas with multi-stage water-fluidized-bed heat exchanger is analyzed in this study. The recovered energy here is not only sensible heat but also latent heat contained in the exhaust gas. In this system direct contact heat transfer occurs while exhaust gas passes through water bed and the thermal energy recovered this way is again delivered to the water circulating through heat exchanging pipes within the bed. Thus the thermal energy of exhaust gas can be recovered as a clean hot water. A computer program developed in this study can predict the heat transfer performance of the system. The results of experiments performed in this study agree well with the calculated ones. The heat and mass transfer coefficients can be fecund through these experiments. The performance increases as the number of stage increases. However at large number of stages the increasing rate becomes very low.

This study presents a novel approach to hydrogen production by biogas from organic waste without CO₂ removal. A process model was developed to reduce the costs associated with biogas pretreatment and purification processes. Through optimization of heat exchange networks, the simulation aimed to minimize process costs, maximizing hydrogen production and flue gas temperature. The results reveal that the most efficient process model maximizes the flue gas temperature while following the constraint of the number of heat exchangers. These findings hold promise for contributing to the expansion of "Biogas-to-clean hydrogen" energy conversion technology.

When a flow passes a series of parallel ones, vortexes will be formed in the wake after the cylinder. This paper treats the problems of vibration and noise in tube bank of gas flow duct of heat exchanger thermal suppling boiler in combine cycle thermal power plants. The boiler burner type has recently been changed to low Nox burner and begun commercial operation. After more load up operation then 70%, high level noise and vibration were generated at gas flow duct of heat exchanger.
