Résumé

Application and development of energy efficient techniques to separate ice from different surfaces and substrates is of significant value in the context of building equipment performance. A hybrid approach to help dislocate the ice layer using advanced materials and ultrasonic vibration to lower ice adhesion strength was investigated. Application
of advanced polymer materials in lowering the adhesion strength of ice was confirmed where the measured strength was lowered by 50-70% depending on the material and geometry. Additionally, utilization of induced ultrasonic vibration in further lowering the ice harvesting energy was confirmed on multiple materials and geometries. Durability
of the coating enhancement was also confirmed in a thermal cycling test under realistic operating conditions. Integration of these technical approaches was implemented and validated in commercial ice makers showing energy consumption reduction by ~ 15% to 30% depending on the technical enhancement.
