On-demand intermittent ice slurry generation for subzero cold thermal energy storage: Numerical simulation and performance analysis

A novel stirred microcalorimetric cell for DSC measurements applied to the study of ice slurries and clathrate hydrates

“…Ice slurries are two-phase refrigerant fluids consisting of ice particles dispersed in water or in a water-based liquid aqueous solution. They appear to represent a very promising solution in the field of cold distribution networks (Kumar et al, 2019). By using ice slurry as a secondary fluid, it is possible to minimize the refrigerant charge in the primary cycle by dedicating it to cold production instead of transportation.…”

Numerical Investigation for the Influence of Turbulent Heat Transfer of Mushy Zone on Shell Growth in the Slab Mold

“…Recently, the flow, heat transfer and macrosegregation in the mushy zone during solidification have been studied using numerical simulation. 4,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] However, the influence of turbulent heat diffusion in the mushy zone on the formation of the impinging zone has been rarely reported.…”

“…Hence, based on the original physical meaning of Pe number, a new defined Peclet number of mushy zone (Pe m ) is proposed to characterize the effect of turbulent heat diffusion/convective heat transfer combinations on the turbulent heat transfer in the mushy zone and identify the boundary of impinging zone by adding the turbulent kinetic energy into the equation and the Pe m is calculated as shown in Eq. (19). Meanwhile, since the research region is in the mushy zone, the characteristic length is set as the SDAS, which has an important impact on the flow in the mushy zone.…”

Production cost of ice slurry using a saline solution and different ice mass fractions, applied to “Perico” (Coryphaena Hippurus) artisanal fishing in Peru

“…In direct cooling applications, different studies have been carried out, especially for seafood [16] [3] [17] [7]. The most common technology used to generate ice slurry is the scraper tube system, however, other studies propose improving the process, for example, using inclined cavities that would provide greater force for the generation of ice slurry [18], using intermittent operation generators [19] or with numerical simulation techniques [20].…”
