IIR documentSummary
The author discusses the use of water as a refrigerant. Under triple point conditions of water, ice crystals are generated, forming a binary ice suspension, which can be used as a secondary refrigerant. Some examples of binary ice machines are mentioned. An important advantage in using binary ice as a secondary refrigerant is that the diameter of the pipework can be reduced by some 60%. The author discusses some applications of refrigerating systems using water as refrigerant and binary ice as secondary refrigerant. A table presents a qualitative and quantitative comparison of water with refrigerants like ammonia, propane and R134a.
