Frosting causes negative impacts in many technical and engineering fields, such as
refrigeration, air source heat pump, aircraft, wind power generation, and power grids. To …

As a common physical phenomenon, frost deposition is inevitable and always has
significant negative effects on several industry fields, such as aerospace, aviation, and …

With the exploration and development of natural gas gradually extended to the deep sea,
low-temperature and high-pressure environmental conditions and long-distance …

A fundamental study of the deposition and aging of a thin incipient wax‐oil gel that is formed
during the flow of waxy oils in cooled pipes was performed. The solubility of high molecular …

When the temperature of a solution of paraffins in oil is dropped below the 'cloud
point'temperature, the high molecular weight n-paraffin molecules precipitate out of solution …

The present study advances a theoretical and experimental investigation of the frost growth
and densification on flat surfaces. This study focuses on the most important factors affecting …

The frosting at ultra-low temperatures can cause significant degradation of the thermal
performance of heat exchangers, which also leads to a decrease in the energy efficiency of …

A mathematical model is presented to predict the behavior of frost formation by
simultaneously considering the air flow and the frost layer. The present model is validated by …

The presence of waxes in crude oil can lead to the formation of wax deposits on the walls of
cold subsea pipelines, which restricts flow and can lead to plugging of the pipelines. This …

Many models have been published to predict frost growth. These may be divided into
empirical and theoretical models. All prior theoretical models assume the water vapor is …
