2906 -- A Review of Frost Formation in Simple Geometries PDF

This paper reviews results of frost research in simple geometries that have been reported over the past fifty years. The literature was split into three categories: frost properties, frost-growth heat transfer, and mass transfer. The emphasis was on analyzing available empirical results and, where relevant, complementary analytical developments. Limitations of data and correlations are also discussed. Suggestions are also made for additional research in those areas where more information is needed.
