Abstract

A population balance approach is used in developing an analysis of homogeneous freezing in a brine-ice slurry by direct-contact heat transfer to a dispersed secondary refrigerant. Exponential and beta distributions are assumed for the ice crystals and refrigerant droplets, respectively. The effects of freezer pressure (refrigerant temperature), inlet refrigerant drop size, and refrigerant and brine flow rates on well-mixed freezer characteristics are presented.
