Experimental Validation of Temperature and Velocity Fields for the Freezing Water

Coauthors: A. Cybulski, M. Rebow

A new experimental technique based on a computational analysis of the colour and displacement of thermochromic liquid crystal tracers was applied to determine both the temperature and velocity fields of freezing water. The method was used to verify and validate numerical solutions for water freezing in the cube shaped cavity.
