MARC recordExperiments on the growth of spongy ice near a stagnant point / G.S.H. Lock, I.B. Foster.
| Title: | Experiments on the growth of spongy ice near a stagnant point / G.S.H. Lock, I.B. Foster. |
| Author(s): | Lock, G. S. H. Foster, I. B. |
| Date: | 1990. |
| In: | Journal of Glaciology. (1990.), Vol. 36(123) (1990) |
| Abstract: | Spongy accretion is involved in hailstone growth and has been observed on offshore structures and ships. Presents experimental observations on its growth in vicinity of forward stagnation point of disc situated in cross-flow containing supercooled water droplets. Focuses on ice fraction and rate of growth of accretion. Data reveal effects of air speed and temperature, liquid water content, and salinity. At higher air temperatures, growth appeared to be crystalline columnar; at lower temperatures, smaller crystals appeared to be randomly distributed, producing mushy accretion. |
