Abstract

This paper describes a time-dependent methodology for calculating the rate of ice accretion on vessels with filigree structures. It combines Newton’s Second Law for spray droplet trajectories with time varying flow velocities determined using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The mass flux of ice is determined by solving a set of partial differential equations describing the conservation of mass, heat, and salt in the boundary layer of brine near the ice surface. Icing predictions numerically generated by this approach are
evaluated against current stability regulations for fishing vessels.
