Abstract
The disclosure provides for systems and methods for removing particle settlement in a heater system. The method includes introducing a fluid into a first heater of the heater system, wherein the first heater is operable to increase the temperature of the introduced fluid. The method further includes actuating a first air agitation unit to discharge a volume of compressed air into the first heater, wherein the compressed air is configured to provide mixing and suspension to particles settled within the first heater through the velocity and expansion of the compressed air to atmospheric pressure. The method further includes discharging a mixture from the first heater comprising the fluid and the particles from the first heater and directing the discharged mixture to a return point in a flow path.
