Experiment and Performance Investigation into Novel Vertical Capsulated Plate Ice Storage Equipment

摘要

In order to solve the problem of short-circuited of the coolant and disadvantageous effect on heat transfer from the inside air and moreover enrich the type of ice thermal storage products home and abroad,a novel vertical capsulated plate ice storage equipment was developed.The mathematical model was established to analyze ice freezing and ice thaw characteristics of the equipment.The experiment result and simulation result were compared and analyzed,the ice freezing characteristics corresponding to different inlet coolant temperatures of the vertical capsulated plate ice storage equipment were analyzed by simulation.The integrative evaluation of the freezing characteristics of the novel vertical capsulated plate ice storage equipment is realized.The entering coolant temperature has an important influence on ice freezing characteristic.
