For mass concrete works at the Lufeng Nuclear Power Project, reliable low-temperature ice supply is critical to structural safety. The concrete cooling system, constructed by CCCC Fourth Harbor Engineering Co., Ltd., relies on a "60T ice maker + 100T automatic ice storage warehouse" configuration to deliver steady, high-volume ice for continuous pouring operations.
Nuclear power mass concrete demands precise temperature control. As concrete cures, hydration heat can generate thermal cracks that threaten structural integrity. Ice-making and ice storage systems are therefore essential to reduce concrete placing temperature and control the internal-external temperature differential.
The 60T ice maker provides consistent high-volume ice production, while the 100T automatic ice storage warehouse balances fluctuating construction demand. Together, they prevent supply shortages, lower concrete temperature, control temperature differences, and minimize cracking risk.
This integrated system reduces manual intervention and ensures a reliable ice supply—making it ideal for nuclear projects with heavy, continuous concrete pouring and stringent quality requirements.
System Composition
60-Ton Ice Maker
As the core ice-producing equipment for this project, the 60-ton ice maker continuously delivers abundant ice to meet the demand of high-intensity, continuous pouring in nuclear power construction. Its high output capacity handles peak ice consumption during construction, laying a solid foundation for low-temperature concrete pouring.
100-Ton Automatic Ice Storage Warehouse
The 100-ton automatic ice storage warehouse serves storage, scheduling, and buffering functions. It balances the supply-demand relationship between the ice-making equipment and on-site pouring. Even during short-term maintenance of the ice maker or sharp fluctuations in ice consumption, the warehouse maintains a steady ice supply—improving the operational efficiency and risk resilience of the entire system.
Concrete Cooling System
The ice maker and automatic ice storage warehouse work in tandem to form a complete concrete cooling system. Ice is conveyed to concrete production as scheduled to lower the mixing and placing temperatures of concrete. This controls the internal temperature rise and cooling rate of concrete, restrains thermal cracking, and ensures the concrete structural quality of the nuclear power project.
