Abstract
A mathematical model of cool-thermal discharge systems for producing chilled air during on-peak power-consumption hours was developed and the analytical solution was obtained using the law of energy conservation with integral boundary-layer analysis. Equations were derived to estimate the melted ice thickness, temperature distribution in water layer and thermal penetration distance in the ice layer when the air mass velocity was controlled to produce the chilled air at the desired temperature from melting ice with air time-velocity variations. Numerical examples were studied in which the inlet ambient air temperatures varied with time to simulate practical systems, and hence the time history of the air mass velocity and the outlet chilled air temperature were also delineated.
