Cooling Bulk Solids Using Water - Products up to 2000°C

Slow and Controlled Product Flow
Slow and Controlled Product Flow

High temperature bulk solids pass slowly downward between a series of horizontal plates designed specifically for high temperature applications.

Indirect Plate Cooling
Indirect Plate Cooling

Cooling water flows through the plates to cool the material by conduction.

Solution For Cooling High Temperature
Bulk Solids

Cooling high temperature bulk solids is inherently challenging. The high temperature cooler from Solex is a fit-for-purpose technology engineered specifically for cooling high temperature bulk solid materials up to 2000°C
and higher.

Advanced Engineering

Finite element analysis (FAE) performed by Solex takes the guesswork out of engineering a heat exchanger for high temperature applications.

Plate Profile
Engineered For High Temperature Cooling

The indirect cooling plates are designed to cool high temperature bulk solids without dead-zones, resulting in uniform cooling. The plate geometry
is engineered to minimize
thermal stresses.

Guaranteed Thermal Performance

Solex uses its proprietary thermal modeling software, ThermaPro, to accurately predict product temperature profiles of the bulk solid material at each point through the heat exchanger. The result is guaranteed thermal performance.
