Abstract

Thís study is experimented to observe an influence of experimental conditions on production characteristics of slurry ice by injection operating water to cooling plate. And at thís experiment ít used ethylene glycol-water solution and the concentration is 10 to 20wt%. The experimental apparatus was constructed of ethylene glycol-water solution and slurry ice storage tank, brine tank， pumps for ethylene glycol-water solution and brine circulating, a mass flow-meter, data logger for fluid temperature measuring and a vertical circular tube with single copper plate as test section The experiments were carried out under various conditions, with mean velocity of fluid at the entry ranging from 1.0 to 2.0m/s and the cooling temperature of -17'C to -10'C.
