The concentration of NaCl aqueous solution has a significant impact on the cooling characteristics.
The concentration of NaCl aqueous solution has a significant impact on the cooling characteristics. When the concentration exceeds 5%, the concentration increases and the cooling capacity increases. After exceeding 17%, the cooling capacity decreases due to the increase of solution viscosity. When the concentration reaches 20%, the cooling capacity decreases significantly. Therefore, the concentration of commonly used NaCl aqueous solution is generally controlled at 5% ~ 15% (that is, the specific gravity is 1.039~1.108g/cm3).
