An ice slurry, which is a mixture of fine ice particles and liquid has both very high heat storage performance and fluidity. The objective of the present study is to investigate the heat transport mechanism of the ice slurry when an ice particle is just close to the area on horizontal heated surface. Experiments were carried out for a variety of the flow velocity and solid fraction. The results indicated that the contribution of latent heat to heat transport of ice slurry increased on a bottom side heated surface with the increase in flow velocity, while it decreased on a top side heated surface as the flow velocity increased.
