Abstract: Artificial hailstones were grown in an icing wind tunnel under simulated natural conditions, starting from oblate ice spheroids with major and minor diameters of 2.0 and 1.3 cm respectively, while undergoing symmetric ...

Abstract: The vertical atmospheric entropy structure has been investigated using one-dimensional radiative?convective models. A method for evaluating radiation entropy is proposed. In the models, the entropy radiation is dealt with ...

Abstract: The closed-circuit icing wind tunnel with pressure control serves for experiments on the growth and melting of ice particles, such as graupel and hailstones, and the observation of shedding of rain-sized drops by growing ...
