Abstract

Aiming at the problems of insufficient utilization of cooling capacity and low ice making efficiency in the ice making process of small household ice maker, a new type of water tank was designed by calculating and analyzing the cooling capacity in the ice making process of ice maker. Simulate the ice making process with software AnsysFluent, compare the ice production of ice maker with new and original water tank in the same time, and carry out experimental verification. The simulation result shows that 75.68% of the cooling capacity is wasted in the original water tank, and only 28.85% in the new water tank when ice making time is 9 mins. At the same time, the cold energy consumption in the new water tank is 43.34% lower than that of the original water tank, and the ice production is increased by 65.22%. The experiment result shows that the ice production of ice maker with the new water tank is increased by more than 75% when ice making time is between 8 and 10 mins; the ice production of ice maker with the new water tank is increased by more than 35% when ice making time is between 11 and 12 mins, and the optimization effect is obvious.

家用制冰机的仿真与实验研究

针对小型家用制冰机制冰过程中制冷量利用不足、制冰效率低的问题，通过对制冰机制冰过程制冷量的计算分析，设计了一种新型水箱。利用AnsysFluent软件模拟制冰过程，同时对比新水箱和原水箱制冰机的产冰情况，并进行实验验证。仿真结果表明，制冰时间为9 min时，原水箱的制冷量浪费了75.68%，新水箱的制冷量浪费了28.85%。同时，新水箱冷能耗比原水箱低43.34%，产冰量提高65.22%。实验结果表明，当制冰时间在8 ~ 10 min之间时，新水箱制冰机的产冰量提高了75%以上;新水箱制冰时间在11 ~ 12 min时，制冰机产冰量提高35%以上，优化效果明显。
