Type of article: Article

Summary

THE STABILITY OF THE CONDUCTION REGIME OF NATURAL CONVECTION IN A VERTICAL MELTED ICE LAYER INITIALLY ASSUMED TO BE AT ITS MELTING TEMPERATURE IS STUDIED USING THE LINEAR THEORY. THE STABILITY CURVES SHOW THAT THE CRITICAL GRASHOF NUMBER AND THE CRITICAL MELTING THICKNESS ARE DEPENDENT UPON THE STEPPED WALL TEMPERATURE T, SUCH THAT AS T IS INCREASED THE CHANGE IN HEAT TRANSFER MODE FROM CONDUCTION TO CONVECTION IS ENHANCED FOR ALL VALUES OF T IN THE RANGE OF 274 -303 K (1 -30 DEG C).
