Summary

THE PAPER REVIEWS SOME HEAT STORAGE SYSTEMS UTILISING WATER-ICE TRANSITION. MOST STORAGE SYSTEMS IN JAPAN ARE FOR OFFICE BUILDING AIR CONDITIONING USING HEAT PUMPS, BECAUSE CONVENTIONAL ICE STORAGE SYSTEMS DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH CAPACITY FOR HEATING. FORTUNATELY, WINTER CONDITIONS ARE MILD IN JAPAN, AND HEATING LOADS IN COMPARISON TO COOLING LOADS HAVE BEEN DECREASED BY RECENT ENERGY CONSERVATION CAMPAIGNS. A WELL-DESIGNED ICE STORAGE SYSTEM CAN PROVIDE SUFFICIENT STORAGE CAPACITY FOR BOTH COOLING AND HEATING AND IT CAN PAY BACK INVESTMENT COSTS WITHIN A REASONABLE NUMBER OF YEARS.
