Abstract

Abstract An experimental and numerical campaign was carried out to investigate the performances of tubes in shell heat exchanger applied to cool down the producer gas of a small-scale commercial wood biomass gasifier built by All Power Labs. Producer gas is contaminated with soot and tars that condensate under 300 °C, for this reason the heat exchanger was designed in order to have an in-situ cleaning mechanism. The heat exchanger was tested both with standard plain tubes and with a set of metal twisted tapes (TT) with the aim of enhancing the heat transfer between producer gas and water. Temperatures and mass flows analyses shown a maximum increase of thermal power output and overall heat transfer coefficient respectively of 19% and 76% when TT are applied to the standard plain tubes in shell heat exchanger. Numerical simulations shown a consistency in the trends giving an average discrepancy with experimental results of the 12%.
