摘要
Low-pressure refrigerant gas hydrates have brilliant prospects as a cool storage me-dium for air-conditioning systems. Intensive effects of some specific magnetic fields on the forma-tion process of HCFC-141b refrigerant gas hydrate are depicted experimentally. Under influence of these specific magnetic fields, the orientation and growth region of gas hydrate are altered; induc-tion time of hydrate crystallization can be shortened extremely, and it can be shortened to 40 min from 9 h; hydrate formation mass can be enhanced considerably, and hydration rate can arrive at 100% in some instances. Meanwhile, the relations of induction time and hydration rate changed with magnetic field intensity are depicted, and some elementary regulations are found.
