Whatever needed by a measuring device / method to produce conclusive result.
The dynamic system (ice become liquid and reversa) try to maximise the heat exchange,
Therefore i have no real clue what will happens finally
(not sure if we can really do the calculation in such a complex system).
What heat exchange? Heat flow only occurs if there is a temperarture difference. If not, how would the heat know which way to flow, and when to stop?
Phase changes are always accompanied by a change in the energy of a system. For example, converting a liquid, in which the molecules are close together, to a gas, in which the molecules are, on average, far apart, requires an input of energy (heat) to give the molecules enough kinetic energy to allow them to overcome the intermolecular attractive forces. The stronger the attractive forces, the more energy is needed to overcome them. Solids, which are highly ordered, have the strongest intermolecular interactions, whereas gases, which are very disordered, have the weakest. Thus any transition from a more ordered to a less ordered state (solid to liquid, liquid to gas, or solid to gas) requires an input of energy; it is endothermic. Conversely, any transition from a less ordered to a more ordered state (liquid to solid, gas to liquid, or gas to solid) releases energy; it is exothermic.
It is due to the fact that the speed of the molecules match statisticaly to the average temperature,
If you start with an incorrect statement, you can confuse yourself.Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a sample, not the other way around.
My plan to improve the signal over noise ratio of the experiment is by improving heat insulation between the system and its surrounding. I'll build a multilayer styrofoam box, closed in all six sides. The box will be divided into 3 compartments. Between first and second compartment is a thermal conductor, such as aluminum plate. While second compartment is separated from third compartment by thermal insulator, such as Styrofoam plate.Second compartment will be filled by 90% ice & 10% water, while first and third compartment will be filled by 10% ice & 90% water. Heat transfer with the environment should be equal between first and third compartment. If there are different result, it must come from heat transfer with second compartment.Is there any objection to this plan?
I finally finished the experiment, after some unexpected challenges. The Styrofoam board I used turned out to be leaky. I covered the internal sides of the Styrofoam box using the hot melt glue used to stick the boards to form the box. But it was still leaky, and the Styrofoam shrunk when overheated. Finally the problem was solved by applying wax layer on top of the glue layer, using candles and hot air gun.The experiment itself brought its own problems. But they can finally be solved. I'll upload the video when I'm done editing it.
What a silly waste of time and energy. Your time would be much better spent learning some physics.
You can't learn new things if you think you already know the answer.

You're not learning anything new, you are just wasting time.The answer was given to you in the first reply and you have wasted your time and others in this never ending merry-go-round thread.
Let's go back to everyone's first physics lesson, or thereabouts. We learned that "temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness" (definition), and "heat flows from a hotter body to a colder body" (observation). Therefore if two bodies are at the same temperature, there can be no heat flow between them.
It is not a prediction, it is a definition. If heat flows from A to B then by definition A is at a higher temperature than B.At equilibrium, by definition of "equilibrium", there is no heat flow.

My experiment tests the prediction made with following assumptions :1. No heat flow without temperature difference.
What "assumption"?
My experiment tests the prediction made with following assumptions :1. No heat flow without temperature difference.2. Water-ice mixture at equilibrium in atmospheric pressure has temperature around 0 degree Celsius, irrespective of the ratio.My experimental result indicates that at least one of them must be false.
