Abstract:This study considers the effect of a slanted side cooling wall that has varying inclination angles on the development of thermosolutal convection during the solidification of a supereutectic aqueous ammonium chloride (NH 4 Cl-H 2 O) solution. The shadowgraph and particle image velocimetry techniques were employed to observe the flow development and measure the flow velocity during solidification. The transient temperature distribution within the test cell was also measured by type-T thermocouples. Experimental… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
