Abstract:Ice slurry is a homogeneous mixture of small ice particles and a carrier liquid. It is widely used in many fields. Previous studies have gradually clarified its heat transfer in high ice packing factor (IPF). However, only a few studies have focused on the mechanism of heat transfer with low IPF in a cavity heated from below. The objective of this study is to experimentally clarify the melting heat transfer of ice slurry in a cavity heated from below with low IPF to develop a direct contact medical cooling sys… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
