Study of atmospheric ice accretion on onshore structures using CFD based numerical approach
Paper presented at the 9th International Conference on Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics, Malta, 16-18 July, 2012. Atmospheric ice accretion occurs, when super cooled water droplets come into contact with the exposed surface of a structure in cold regions like arctic and alpine. Most...

Atmospheric ice accretion occurs, when super cooled water droplets come into contact with the exposed surface of a structure in cold regions like arctic and alpine. Most investigations of this subject have been performed using experimental techniques, but for the last decade or so the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based numerical techniques have begun to play a significant role in understanding and simulating the atmospheric ice accretion on structures.
