Sketch of the sandTES fluidized bed heat exchanger. Black arrows repre sand (yellow), while blue arrows show the fluidization air flow. The valve at the top is used to create sand (yellow), while blue arrows show the fluidization air flow. The valve at the top a pressure zone (so-called air cushion) to control the sand level below. Both sand and fluidization gas a pressure zone (so-called air cushion) to control the sand level below. Both sand are external flows. gas are external flows.
