Summary

THE EFFECTS OF MAXIMUM DENSITY NEAR 277 K (4 DEG C) ON STEADY-STATE, TWO-DIMENSIONAL ICE FORMATION AROUND AN ISOTHERMALLY COOLED HORIZONTAL CYLINDER IN A QUIESCENT WATER BATH ARE STUDIED EXPERIMENTALLY. THE STAGNATION POINT NUSSELT NUMBER, LOCAL HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT, AND AVERAGE NUSSELT NUMBER BEHAVIOUR AT THE ICE-WATER INTERFACE ARE STUDIED. THE TEMPERATURE FIELD IN THE ICE LAYER IS DETERMINED FROM THE MEASURED ICE PROFILES. THE AVERAGE ICE LAYER THICKNESS AND TOTAL LOW-TEMPERATURE HEAT STORED IN THE ICE LAYER CAN BE CORRELATED.
