“…However, it was found that there was no supercooling when a similar experiment was carried out at a much lower temperature. Braga et al [19] experimentally investigated the supercooling phenomenon of pure water inside cylindrical capsules which were externally cooled by ascending vertical flow, used generally for cold storage operations. They reported that the cooling rate decreased with increasing capsule diameter and increased with the higher thermal conductivity of the capsule's material.…”

“…However, the subcooling of water during solidification is a major problem in the CTES system that demands lower evaporator temperature in the refrigeration system. This reduces the coefficient of performance of the refrigeration system appreciably [6] and many researchers have investigated the effects of surrounding coolant temperature [7,8], size of the capsule [9][10][11] and addition of nucleators [12] on the subcooling behavior of water. In addition, increase in thermal resistance with respect to time lessens the heat transfer rate as the solideliquid interface moves away from the heat transfer surface during solidification.…”
