Summary

An experimental study has been performed to investigate the production characteristics of liquid ice as a new phase change material along horizontal cylinders immersed in a cold air stream with spraying droplets of propylene-glycol aqueous solution. During the experiment, it was found that the most suitable conditions for producing the liquid ice might be wind velocity: 6 m/s and air temperature: -12 deg C. In such conditions, more than 90% of the sprayed aqueous solution could be collected as the liquid ice in the wind tunnel.
