中文摘要：

In this paper, the macroscopic visualization experiments of HFC-134a refrigerant gas hydrate formation are investigated. According to the macroscopic photos and Mori’s microscopic photos of HFC-134a hydrate formation process, the mechanism of gas hydrate formation is analyzed. A random inducement nucleation model is presented to describe the hydrate formation process. The factors affecting the fractal growth dimension in the model, such as step, branch increment and angle, are discussed.
