Description

This volume of papers has been produced in memory of Professor R.R. Gilpin, who was a pioneer in the field of freezing phenomena in ice-water systems. The subject has applications in ice formation in industrial plants, technologies for manufacturing crystals in space for semiconductors and computer chips and atmospheric physics and geophysics. The book begins with a coverage of historical developments in the field and goes on to cover freezing and melting heat transfer, convective heat transfer in ice-water systems, frost formation, solidification and melting of solutions and atmospheric and marine icings. It is aimed at researchers, graduate students and practicing engineers in freezing and melting heat transfer, heat pipes, mechanical, industrial and aeronautical engineering, astrophysics and geophysics.
