Brine Tank is a tank that serves to freeze ice blocks. Brine Tank contained salt water to condense water. Numerical analysis and simulation were carried out after a mathematical model of the ice freezing process in the Brine Tank space was formed. The simulations used in this study were Matlab and Fluent. The matlab graphic result of ice freezing process in brine tank factory ice box with an initial temperature 301 K faster than initial temperatures of 302 K and 303 K. Results graph using freezing MATLAB with a pool temperature 266 K faster than an temperature of 267 K and 268 K. Based on the MATLAB calculation results using the Gauss Seidel iteration method and the exact calculation, it show that the results of the difference between the numerical temperature value of each node and the exact temperature value of each node is less than 0.001
