Summary

Seawater is the most common fluid on earth and ice generating machines are increasingly used on fishing vessels to produce ice slurry from the seawater with up to 60 % ice to be poured over the catch. In this study, new measurements of thermophysical properties of standard seawater have been carried out to complement a recent literature search made to establish thermophysical property data of seawater as function of salinity and temperature. These single-phase measurements have been made for salinity 20, 30 and 35 g . kg-1 (2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 % total salt content) and include measurements of freezing point, density, dynamic viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity and specific enthalpy. The obtained experimental results generally confirm recent literature search and experimental results only call for minor adjustments of viscosity values. Hence, experimental results confirm the following published ice slurry properties: enthalpy, ice fraction and ice slurry density.
