On Freezing of Supercooled Droplets Shattered by Shock Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Supercooled water droplets in free fall were shattered by shock waves in a laboratory shock tube, and the fragments thus produced were examined for the presence of ice crystals. The experimental results show that the ...
On the Role of Shock Waves and Adiabatic Cooling in the Nucleation of Ice Crystals by the Lightning Discharge
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A cloud of small supercooled water droplets was subjected to shock waves of reproducible intensity in the laboratory. Nucleation of freezing occurred only when the gas driving the shock waves was cooled to ?37C or below ...
