Funded Activity Summary
Mechanism and control of water droplets from condensation to defrosting. The deposition of frost/ice is inevitable and negatively impacts many fields and industries, such as the frosting of air source heat pumps and liquid natural gas vaporizers, and icing of aircraft and power cables. On the other hand, ice slurry is widely deployed for cold storage and transportation of food and organs. To accurately predict and control the frosting/icing process, this project aims to study and understand the interrelated heat, mass and momentum transport phenomena of water droplets from condensation to defrosting. Outcomes of this project should contribute to the development of new material, such as applicable anti-icing/anti-frosting surfaces, and relative technology and equipment, and thus benefit a number of fields.Funded Activity Details
