摘要：

Certain properties of ice are reviewed. The phenomenon of freezing of water is discussed, with special emphasis on the blockage and bursting of water pipes. Several concepts are discussed that are related to achieving the freezing of water, the design of the container where freezing occurs and the conversion into mechanical energy. A conceptual design is presented for one type of ice energy converter. Certain design details for this machine are provided. Initial test results are furnished for this device, which was manufactured and tested. Conclusions are drawn and recommendations are made. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
