Bulk Solids Heat Exchanger
Bulk Sloids Heat Exchanger also are called power flow cooler, solid plate type cooler, etc., it’s an upgraded process of traditional rotary drum and fluidized bed cooler, this bulk solids heat exchanger own the core technology, design, and the advanced production equipments and super large manufacturing base and guarantee the high-efficient production capacity and shorten the delivery time. Bulk solids pass slowly downward between a series of vertical hollow platecoils. Cooling water flows inside the plates to cool the material by conduction. The mass flow discharge feeder maintains uniform product velocity through the cooler and regulates the product flow rate.
Caking is prevented by keeping the dew point of interstitial air between product particles below the plate surface temperature. This is accomplished via calibrated purge air volume and defined cooling water parameters (flow rate & temperature).
The mass flow design means the product moves slowly and with uniform velocity through the cooler. This enables even temperature distribution, producing stable and uniform final product temperatures.
Since air is not used in the heat transfer process, installed capital costs are reduced due to the elimination of costly and unnecessary air handling equipment.
The compact installation footprint makes this design easy to integrate into existing plants, and is ideal for debottlenecking or revamps. The modular design means additional heat exchange plate banks can be stacked if increased cooling capacity is required in the future.
