Abstract
Ice crystal growth of water and its aqueous solution is the key phenomenon in food freezing. In this research, the effect of static magnetic field (SMF) on single ice crystal growth was investigated combing experiment and simulation. The ice crystal growth of water and NaCl-water solution under 0 - 15 mT SMF intensities were studied. The UV absorbance of water after SMF treatment was measured. Phase field model was adopted to simulate the ice crystal growth. The results show that SMF significantly inhibited the growth rate, while had little effect on the morphology and growth direction of ice crystals. SMF had a certain enhancement effect on the UV absorbance of deionized water. The proposed model could well simulate the ice crystal growth under different SMF intensities. Combining experimental and simulation results, it can be inferred that SMF inhibits ice crystal growth by enhancing original hydrogen bonds and reducing free energy.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Refrigeration is published for the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) by Elsevier. It is essential reading for all those wishing to keep abreast of research and industrial news in refrigeration, air conditioning and associated fields. This is particularly important in these times of rapid introduction of alternative refrigerants and the emergence of new technology. The journal has published special issues on alternative refrigerants and novel topics in the field of boiling, condensation, heat pumps, food refrigeration, carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbons, magnetic refrigeration at room temperature, sorptive cooling, phase change materials and slurries, ejector technology, compressors, and solar cooling.
As well as original research papers the International Journal of Refrigeration also includes review articles, papers presented at IIR conferences, short reports and letters describing preliminary results and experimental details, and letters to the Editor on recent areas of discussion and controversy. Other features include forthcoming events, conference reports and book reviews.
Papers are published in either English or French with the IIR news section in both languages.
