Abstract

Many studies have been carried out to better understand the frosting process. Most of these have been concerned with the overall frost layer and the effects on this layer of different ambient conditions. Both free and forced convection situations have been examined under a variety of different humidity, wall temperature, air temperature, and air velocity combinations. Complete surveys of recent frosting investigations are available in the literature [1–3].
