On the basis of experimental verification of mathematical model, the influence of honeycomb ceramic on heat extraction is numerically studied under the steady state condition. The calculation results show the packed honeycomb ceramic influences the extracted heat of heat exchanger by changing the flow field while not radiation heat transfer of heat exchanger outer wall, and the difference between the extracted heat of heat exchanger embedded in packed bed and that of heat exchanger in empty bad is gradually obvious with gas temperature increasing under the condition of the same gas mass flow rate. In addition, under the same operating condition, when the two characteristic sizes of heat extraction zone honeycomb ceramic in the vertical gas flow direction increase, the extracted heat of embedded heat exchanger shows a trend of first increase while extracted heat of embedded heat exchanger shows a trend of decrease because the decreasing of the windward and leeward side gas flow velocity of heat exchanger results into weakening of convective heat transfer of embedded heat exchanger outer wall.
