Technology Description
The Icephobic Heat Exchange (IHEX) technologyprevents ice from building up on the iceslurry-producing heat exchangers(by coating the heatexchangers in a polymer and submerging them in oil), which improves thermal transfer efficiency and enablesmuch faster charging and discharging than traditional ice-based thermal energy storage systems.
