摘要
Experiments have been made on cool storage by evaporation of HFC-134a (CH2FCF3) or HCFC-123 (CHCl2CF3) brought into direct contact with water in a crystallizer, which was incorporated into a vapour-compression refrigerator loop. The degree of supercooling before the inception of gas-hydrate formation with HFC-134a was found to be reduced by the addition of powdery alumina or zinc or the addition of a surfactant to the water, while the addition of Pseudomonas fluorescens, a strain of ice-nucleating bacteria, showed no effect. The use of HCFC-123 instead of HFC-134a resulted in the formation of slush ice only; no sign of gas-hydrate formation was recognized. The reason for this is considered to lie in the molecular size of HCFC-123.
