Exploding ice droplets Date: February 24, 2017 Source: University of Twente Summary: A droplet of water freezing from the outside in shows an exciting series of rapid changes until it violently ...

Precipitation occurs when water droplets explode in the cold tops of clouds, transforming fluid droplets to ice. Details of the water droplets' dynamics when frozen were published online Feb. 24 ...

Droplets deform ice. In their new study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists in the Physics of Fluids group observed that droplets can alter the behavior of a freezing front.

One might expect water to evaporate much faster than ice. Surprisingly, researchers from the University of Amsterdam have now shown that for small droplets of ice, this is not the case: ice and ...
