Thermodynamic analysis of an ice slurry thermal energy storage system for decreased size and cost of HVAC systems
Abstract
Performance assessment of a cold thermal energy
storage (ITES – Ice Thermal Energy Storage) system with ice slurry generation
for closed space air conditioning purposes is conducted. A detailed energy and
exergy analysis are performed for the baseline system and some parametric
studies are also presented for varying environmental conditions. Exergy
definition is linked to sustainability and reported with graphical
representations. A compressor & condenser unit linked to an ice slurry
generator and generated ice is stored at storage tank for specific hours of a
day. Stored energy is then discharged to the building through a flat-plate heat
exchanger. Thermodynamic analysis results suggest that high capacity cooling
can be conducted with low capacity vapor compression refrigeration systems
(VCR) by integrating ITES systems, leading to a significantly lower size and
lower cost HVAC systems.
