The current climate crisis requires a radical reduction in energy consumption and
greenhouse gas emissions. For the refrigeration industry, secondary refrigeration is one of …

In this study, the ice formation behaviour in micro pipelines accompanied by free crystal
movement was investigated using the using the coupled method of lattice Boltzmann …

Rock-ice avalanches pose serious risks to humans and infrastructures due to their extremely
large volumes and high mobility in glacierized mountain regions. The mobility of rock-ice …

The freezing of water on surfaces is an important phase change process with an outsized
influence in both natural and engineered systems. Liquid water below the melting …

Water-filled capillary tubes are a kind of standard component in both life science (eg, blood
vessels, interstitial pores, and plant vessels) and engineering (eg, MEMS microchannel …

This paper presents a computational model of the freezing point of soil and the nucleation
rate of ice based on the soil volume for saline soils. Physicochemical methods and …

The level of nuclear waste emergency disposal is an important factor restricting the rapid
development of the nuclear energy industry under the trend of global energy revolution. To …
