With over 35 years’ mine ventilation, cooling & refrigeration experience, BBE’s highly specialised and experienced consulting engineers work alongside international mining clients to provide a comprehensive suite of services.
Rock Thermal Property Analysis
The following rock thermal properties can be determined using a state of the art data acquisition system, heat flux sensors and temperature probes:
- Thermal conductivity
- Density
- Specific heat
- Diffusivity (calculated)
This critical information can impact considerably on the cooling strategy and requirements of current or planned mining operations with specific reference to capital and operating costs.
