Circulating
fluidized bed reactor especially for burning fuel, includes a
combustion chamber (2) having a
bed with fluidized
solid particle materials therein and a
solid matter cooler (3) connecting with it used for cooling the expellent ash or the
solid matter (13) from the bottom of the
combustion chamber (2). The cooler (3) includes: at least a turbulence chamber (4, 5, 6) used to make the to be chilled
solid matter pass through in a horizontal flow, wherein the first turbulence chamber (4, 5, 6) has a inferior part (10) and a
free space (11) arranged above the cooler
fluidized bed (35) communicating with the gas side and the
solid matter side of the corresponding turbulence chamber (4, 5, 6); an apparatus used for inputting the fluidizing agent (12) to each inferior part (10) to in order to fluidize the
granular material in the turbulence chamber (4, 5, 6); at least a
discharge opening (14), used for draining the fluidizing agent (12) from the
free space (11) into the inferior part of the
combustion chamber (2); at least an inlet port (15), connecting the first turbulence chamber (4) to the inferior part of the
combustion chamber (2), used for inducting the ash (13) from the bottom vicinity of the
fluidized bed firing furnace into the cooler (3); and at least a
discharge opening (16), connecting with the final turbulence chamber (4, 5, 6), used for separating the
solid matter grain (13) from the fluidizing agent (12) containing the solid matter grain (13) flowing in the direction of the
discharge opening (14) and returning the separated solid matter (13) to the turbulence chamber (4, 5, 6).
