Summary

THE PROBLEM OF STEADY-STATE, TWO-DIMENSIONAL ICE FORMATION AROUND AN ISOTHERMALLY COOLED CIRCULAR CYLINDER IN A CROSSFLOW IS STUDIED EXPERIMENTALLY FOR THE RANGES OF REYNOLDS NUMBERS, 2.3 X 102 TO 8.6 X 104 AND COOLING TEMPERATURE RATIOS, 6.3 TO 75.8. THE LOCAL AND AVERAGE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS AT THE ICE-WATER INTERFACE ARE OBTAINED FROM MEASURED ICE PROFILES BY USING A SERIES SOLUTION OF THE LAPLACE EQUATION IN THE ICE. CORRELATION EQUATIONS FOR THE AVERAGE HEAT TRANSFER ARE OBTAINED FOR THREE REGIMES OF REYNOLDS NUMBERS. A CORRELATION IS ALSO OBTAINED FOR THE COOLING CAPACITY THAT CAN BE STORED IN THE ICE LAYER AROUND A CYLINDER.
