Freezing and ice aging dynamics in saline water under natural convection
Feng Wang, Yihong Du, Xueyi Xie +2
Understanding the coupled dynamics of liquid-solid phase change and fluid flows is crucial in a wide range of geophysical and industrial applications. When freezing occurs in salin…
Active biphasic heat transfer enhancement in vertical natural convection
Haoran Qi, Chaoben Zhao, Yaning Fan +3
Vertical natural convection (VC), often cannot meet the high heat transfer demands due to the inherent misalignment of the direction of buoyancy (vertical) with the direction of th…
Sea ice aging by diffusion-driven desalination
Yihong Du, Feng Wang, Enrico Calzavarini +1
Sea ice is a key component of the Earth's climate system, making its aging process an essential focus of current research. The age of sea ice is closely linked to its thermal and m…
