Ice-slurry thermal storage systems, classified under MasterFormat Division 23 71 19.26, offer an energy-efficient solution for buildings with high cooling demands. By leveraging the latent heat of fusion during the ice-making process, these systems shift energy consumption to off-peak hours, resulting in significant cost savings and reduced environmental impact.
An ice-slurry thermal storage system is a type of cooling technology that utilizes a mixture of water and ice, known as ice slurry, to store thermal energy. This slurry, with its ice concentration typically ranging from 5% to 40%, acts as a thermal battery, absorbing heat during off-peak hours and releasing it during peak demand periods.
Ice-slurry systems operate on a simple principle: utilizing the phase change of water from liquid to solid (and vice versa) to store and release energy. During off-peak hours, when electricity rates are lower, the system's chiller freezes water, creating ice slurry that is stored in a dedicated tank. During peak demand, the stored ice slurry is pumped through a heat exchanger, absorbing heat from the building's chilled water loop and providing cooling. This process melts the ice, returning it to a liquid state and completing the cycle.
Ice-slurry thermal storage systems are particularly well-suited for buildings with large cooling loads and predictable usage patterns, such as:
Successful installation of an ice-slurry system requires careful planning and execution. Some key best practices include:
While an exhaustive list is beyond the scope, some prominent manufacturers of ice-slurry thermal storage systems include:
Ice-slurry thermal storage systems present a compelling solution for reducing energy consumption and costs associated with building cooling. By shifting energy usage to off-peak hours, these systems contribute to a more sustainable and resilient energy grid while providing reliable and efficient cooling for various applications.
