On Supercooling and Ice Formation in Turbulent Sea-water
Abstract Laboratory data on supercooling and frazil-ice formation in sea-water are analysed using a boundary-layer model. The model is based on a turbulent channel-flow boundary-layer theory, in which buoyancy effects become important because of vertical gradients in temperature, salinity, and suspe...
