METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING ICE SLURRY AND METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSPORTING ICE SLURRY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system in which power energy required for transportation can be reduced while reducing the dimensions of piping by utilizing ice slurry exhibiting a resistance decreasing effect while suppressing growth of ice particles for transporting cold heat. SOLUTION: A surfactant, e.g. betaine, is added to cold heating medium, i.e., water, and supercooled in a storage tank. It is then stirred and supercooling is released thus producing ice slurry containing fine ice particles under stabilized state. The ice slurry is stored in a storage tank or transported through a pump and piping thus transporting cold heat.
