The design and operation of a compact, lightweight particle bed heater for rapidly loading (≤1 s) a 1000 cm3 test chamber with clear, high-temperature (100≤T≤600 °C), high-pressure (10≤P≤50 MPa) gas is described. The device facilitates the design of short duration (≤10 s) experiments where visualization of dynamic systems at such conditions are desired. The heater has enabled visualization of reactive spray phenomena in our laboratory, and its performance in this application is summarized.
