Abstract

A device for cooling hot, compressed, dust-laden gases. The device consists of an inner structure made out of cooled tubes, positioned inside a pressurized container. The device contains several straight partitions made out of tubes. The partitions parallel the longitudinal axis of the inner structure. The object is to redesign the heat-emitting surfaces of the device in order to make it more compact. At least one of the straight partitions is bent out into a nest of tubes. The nest extends through the cross-section of the inner structure. The tubes that the nest is made out of extend through and are supported by the rest of the partitions.
