Summary

CO2 hydrate slurry is a promising fluid containing phase change material for secondary refrigeration cold distribution issues due to its high latent heat (about 500 kJ.kg-1 of water, higher than that of ice – 333 kJ.kg-1) and having a wide melting temperature range suitable for air conditioning application. The thermodynamic properties of CO2 hydrates are now well established. Nevertheless, knowledge of crystallization kinetics phenomena is still a challenge. The goal here is to promote the rate of CO2 hydrate formation to increase the energy density of the CO2-hydrate-based system.
The present work investigates the kinetics of CO2 hydrate crystallization for different types of stirrers in a jacketed stirred batch reactor by heat transfer measurement. The mass fraction of crystallized hydrate was determined directly from the heat balance on the cooling jacket, with a specific differential thermal direct measurement. This heat balance's kinetic approach is compared with a classical mass balance approach based on pressure and temperature measurements and suitable CO2 concentration and hydrate composition assumptions.
