Analysis of a volumetric method of measuring "state of charge" in ice storage applications.

Author(s) : WEST J. D., BRAUN J. E., MONTGOMERY K. W.

Summary

The paper describes the evaluation and improvement of a volumetric method of measuring state of charge for ice storage systems. The baseline for the evaluation is an energy balance method that is highly accurate but prohibitively expensive for commercial use. A computer model was used to examine the predicted errors of the volumetric state of charge method and to develop a correction factor that improves its accuracy.
