Summary

Comparatively with the case of cooling from the top (without natural convection), it was found that, in the case of cooling from the side, if the geometric aspect ratio is low the water near the surface having a higher degree of supercooling diffused away from the surface and caused to reduce the probability of ice appearance in water. In contrast with the above result, in the case of aspect ratio between 2.0 and 8.0, the probability was increased. This phenomenon was due to the acceleration of heat transfer and temperature stratification.
