[In Japanese. / En japonais.]

Author(s) : OHKUBO H., MATSUMOTO N., OCHIAI J., et al.

Type of article: Article

Summary

With advances in low temperature technology in recent days, the water ethanol mixture is attracting more and more attention as an environmentally friendly coolant or as a thermal storage material. In the study, the authors investigated the mechanism of mushy crystal formation and the state of a mushy layer formed on a cooling surface, with the objective of using a water ethanol mixture as a coolant or a thermal energy storage material. In one experiment, the authors studied the mechanism of crystal formation within a minute droplet of water ethanol mixture, and in the other, the mechanism of the crystal growth in the mushy layer formed in a liquid pool in contact with a cooling surface.
