Visual Simulation of Glazed Frost Considering the Supercooled State
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a method for simulating glazed frost by computing heat transfers between water droplets and the surrounding air. Motions of air and water droplets are computed based on a FLIP (Fluid-Implicit-Particle)based fluid solver. Glazed frost is a crystal clear ice and formed from supercooled raindrops that freeze when they hit object surfaces. We propose a method to create an animation of glazed frost formation by taking into account the heat transfer between particles and the outside grids. The time to freeze is calculated by considering the heat flux on the surface of the raindrop until freezing from the adhesion on the obstacles. We propose a technique which is highly compatible for a FLIP method to solve the heat conduction equation and we reproduce the formation of glazed frost.

Quantifying the threshold frost hardiness for over-wintering survival of wheat in Iran, using simulation
The value of frost tolerance in wheat is increased with decreasing the temperature in late autumn and/or early winter (phase I, acclimation), then shows plateau state for a period with the coldest temperature (II), finally appears to decrease with warming the temperature (III, de-acclimation). This study was aimed to determine the threshold frost hardiness in wheat for avoiding ...

متن کاملControlling condensation and frost growth with chemical micropatterns
In-plane frost growth on chilled hydrophobic surfaces is an inter-droplet phenomenon, where frozen droplets harvest water from neighboring supercooled liquid droplets to grow ice bridges that propagate across the surface in a chain reaction. To date, no surface has been able to passively prevent the in-plane growth of ice bridges across the population of supercooled condensate. Here, we demonst...
متن کاملSimulation study of past survival trends in over-wintering of wheat in Iran
The snow-cover on soil, the factor that protects wheat from the biting cold, has generally declined; on the other hand, the surface air temperature has warmed. It is not clear whether these changes decrease winter-killing of wheat or favor it in Iran. Therefore, this study was mainly aimed to determine the past trend in frequency of winter-kill events (Y) for wheat with -4 oC frost tolerance, u...
متن کاملVolume nucleation rates for homogeneous freezing in supercooled water microdroplets: results from a combined experimental and modelling approach
Temperature-dependent volume nucleation rate coefficients for supercooled water droplets, JV (T ), are derived from infrared extinction measurements in a cryogenic laminar aerosol flow tube using a microphysical model. The model inverts water and ice aerosol size distributions retrieved from experimental extinction spectra by considering the evolution of a measured initial droplet distribution ...
