Abstract

The experimental discussion was performed to the process of ice formation and melting in the ice thermal energy storage cell employing the resin tube-mat for the heat transfer surface. The experiments were carried out by varying the size of resin tube-mat and the arrangement of the tubes by measuring the ice formation rate and the melting rate, and by measuring the temperature change of the brine. As a result, in the solidification process, the steady performance for the storing of cold energy was achieved during about 4-6 hours by the brine of - 5°C and in the melting process, the performance for the utilizing of cold energy was achieved during about 3-5 hours by the brine of 10°C. It was found that the heat transfer characteristics becomes better for the case of the thin pipe thickness and the large pipe diameter.
