Abstract
The adhesion of frazil ice to different surfaces was studied in the laboratory under varying conditions. Field tests were made by submerging pipes, coated in a non-ice- nucleating grease, in frazil-producing rapids. The results of these experiments are discussed and the usefulness of protective coatings in preventing the adhesion of frazil ice to underwater structures is assessed.
