Analysis of the Frost Phenomena on a Cryo-Surface

  • Conference paper
Advances in Cryogenic Engineering

Part of the book series: Advances in Cryogenic Engineering ((ACRE,volume 9))

Abstract

This paper provides expressions for heat and mass transfer to the frost surface and information regarding the frost formation which can be used by designers of cryogenic systems with uninsulated surfaces, and furthers the general understanding of the frost* phenomena.
