| Research Abstract |
Experimental and theoretical studies about clathrate-hydrate formation have been performed to, expecting to contribute to establishing new energy-utilization technologies including the natural-gas storage/transport in the form of hydrates and the heat-pump technology utilizing a hydrate-forming substance as the working medium. Special attention has been paid for the utility of double hydrates in each of which cages of two (or three) different types are primarily occupied by guest molecules of different species. The issues of the studies performed under this contract cover a wide range of the spatial scale, extending from the microscopic kinetics of crystal growth to the heat and mass transfer in macroscopic multiphase systems.
