Implication

Experiments demonstrate heat transfer impacts melting rates in ice based on geometry and flow dynamics.

Key Points

This work examines how near-field flows affect local ice melting dynamics.
Experiments conducted using ice cylinders to isolate flow effects.
Investigation of flow separation and wake interactions influencing melting.
Assessment of melting rates in relation to flow geometry and velocity.
Melt rates were found to vary spatially due to flow dynamics.
Higher melting occurred where flow was attached, lower in recirculation areas.
Wakes from ice cylinders coupled, reducing local melt rates.
