Primary Frost Heave: a Quasi-Steady Approach CANADIAN APPLIED MATHEMATICS QUARTERLY Volume 4, Number 1, Winter 1996 PRIMARY FROST HEAVE: A QUASI-STEADY APPROACH ZHENZHONG DING AND FEDERICO TALAMUCCI 1. Introduction. When a soil saturated with water is subject to a freezing process, three different zones are usually observed: (i) a completely frozen zone, i.e., a mixture of soil grains and ice, possibly including "lenses" of pure ice, (ii) an unfrozen zone, where. water fills the pores and migrates through them, and (iii) an intermediate region where ice and water coexist with soil grains. This last part is the so-called "frozen fringe." From a mathematical point of view, models for freezing in saturated porous media can be grouped in two main categories: models in which the fringe is neglected and a sharp interface is assumed to exist between the frozen and unfrozen zones (class A, according to [5]) and models in which the change of phase is assumed to occur over a fringe of finite width (class B). These two classes of models correspond to "primary frost heave," and "secondary frost heave," models, respectively. Indeed, suction of water towards the freezing front often causes the soil swelling, a phenomenon that is relevant in many practical cases. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of models of class A, starting from the basic assumption. As a matter of fact, some of the models of primary frost heave used in the literature are not fully justified, or are simply incorrect. For the sake of simplicity, we restrict our attention to one-dimensional cases that cover many of the large scale applications. The models are summarized in Section 4. In the second part of the paper (Sections 5 and 6) we present explicit solutions to special problems in the quasi-steady approximation, i.e., when each phase can be considered at thermal equilibrium at any time. Primary frost heave does not represent a realistic and complete description of the phenomenon, but it represents a simple approach to the problem and also a reasonable approximation, at least when the Received by the editors in revised form on September 21, 1995.

TALAMUCCI thickness of the fringe is negligible with respect to the length scale of the process studied. We believe that models of class A can be regarded as a first stage in the study of ground freezing. Indeed, when models of class B are concerned, there is no consensus on the laws governing the evolution of the frozen fringe, and an accurate discussion of primary frost heave could allow for discriminating among different models for secondary frost heave, checking whether or not the corresponding model of class A can be recovered as a limiting case. 2. Mass and energy conservation. The one-dimensional model of class A examined in this paper is based on the following assumptions: i) the porous medium is saturated with water and chemically inactive; ii) the porous matrix in the unfrozen region is undeformable and at rest. It represents the frame of reference with respect to which the equations are written; iii) all water that reaches the frost line freezes instantaneously. Taking an upwards-directed vertical coordinate z, let z = z~ and z = zs denote the bottom and the top (soil surface) of a soil sample. While z~ is a constant, as will be an unknown function of time, because of the heaving process. The position of the freezing front is given by the unknown function z = z~(t).The region z~ < z < zF(t) is the unfrozen part of the soil, while z~(t)< z < zs(t) is totally frozen. At z = zg and z = zs the temperature will be prescribed as well as a boundary condition of mechanical type as, for instance, the pressure of water at E = ZB and the force per unit area acting on the soil surface (e.g., equal to the atmospheric pressure). In the following, suffixes u and f refer to the unfrozen and frozen soil, respectively, while we will use suffixes W, I, S to denote water, ice and soil. The density p and the porosity E are related in the following way: If q represents the volumetric velocity of water (i.e., the volume passing through a unit surface in a unit time), conservation of mass PRIMARY FROST HEAVE 59 pores and reaches the lens, which will increase in thickness. Thus, we can have a situation (described by a primary frost heave model) where a lens can grow "behind" the freezing front, and not "at" the freezing front. 7. Conclusions. Recalling conditions (5.11) and (5.19) and taking a frame of reference with zs = 0, ZF = b, zs(0) = c (the same considered in ii)), we have that, when the boundary temperatures ho and go are constant, the conditions for lens formation are -ho < -- < -ho + (lens formation), b C-b b where (we take 7 = 1for simplicity; hence, pi = pw = p). Equation (7.1) can be read as a double condition for the temperature go, once ho and pw(O, t) has been prescribed; indeed, go must be lower than an upper threshold in order to allow the freezing process to take place, and greater than the critical value in order to avoid frost penetration. On the other hand, condition (5.24), valid for frost penetration, gives (frost penetration). If (7.3) is satisfied, i.e., if go < gb, frost penetration occurs and the water pressure ~w(zF(~),t) takes the critical value -p,. 60 2. DING AND F. TALAMUCCI Note that in this case (go > gl), if one prescribes the critical pressure -pc at the front (and then the freezing temperature TF), melting would occur since the contribution of convection at the separating front is too high to allow freezing. However, in the same last case go > gb lens formation is possible, but obviously pw at the front cannot be prescribed, and it will be PW(%F(~),~)> -PC. Let us summarize the analysis in the following statement: Once ho and pw at the bottom of the soil are prescribed, we have i) go < 91 and pw (ZF(t) ,t) = -pc (hence T (ZF(t), t) = TF)implies frost penetration; ii) gu > go > gl implies lens formation; iii) go > gu implies melting. The example of transition from frost penetration to lens formation that has been analyzed in Section 6 has to be framed in the previous scheme in the following way (although go is not constant): a) the temperature go(t) is lower than gl as long as t < T and condition (7.3) is fulfilled, so that frost penetration can take place for t E [O,7); b) when t = T, go reaches the value gl so that (7.3) is no longer valid, but inequality (7.1) is true for t > T; therefore, ice grows at the freezing front and a lens will form. Remark 1. If we prescribe the thermal fluxes at the bottom and on the top of the soil, we can assign, for instance, where fl and f2 are two (positive) constants.

These provide insight into the potential structures of ice even in its liquid phase, and they can be used to calibrate pair potentials used for simulation of water [9, 14, 15]. In crowded biological environments, water may behave more like ice that bulk water. The different ice structures have different dielectric properties [16]. There are many crystal structures of ice that are topologically tetrahedral [1], that is, each water molecule makes four hydrogen bonds with other water molecules, even though the basic structure of water is trigonal [3]. Two of these crystal structures (Ih and Ic) are based on the same exact local tetrahedral structure, as shown in Figure 1.1. Thus a subtle understanding of structure is required to differentiate them. We refer to the tetrahedral structure depicted in Figure 1.1 as an exact tetrahedral structure. In this case, one water molecule is in the center of a square cube (of side length two), and it is hydrogen bonded to four water molecules at four corners of the cube.

The accumulated volume of flood water was used to estimate the average rate of water accumulation in the subglacial lakes during the last decade as 6 Gl (6·106 m3) per month for the lake below the western cauldron and 9 Gl per month for the eastern caul- dron. Data on water accumulation and lake water composition in the western cauldron were used to estimate the power of the underlying geothermal area as ∼550 MW. For a jökulhlaup from the Western Skaftá cauldron in September 2006, the low- ering of the ice cover overlying the subglacial lake, the discharge in Skaftá and the temperature of the flood water close to the glacier margin were measured. The dis- charge from the subglacial lake during the jökulhlaup was calculated using a hypso- metric curve for the subglacial lake, estimated from the form of the surface cauldron after jökulhlaups. The maximum outflow from the lake during the jökulhlaup is esti- mated as 123 m3 s−1 while the maximum discharge of jökulhlaup water at the glacier terminus is estimated as 97 m3 s−1.

  • Electromagnetism Based Atmospheric Ice Sensing Technique - a Conceptual Review
    Int. Jnl. of Multiphysics Volume 6 · Number 4 · 2012 341 Electromagnetism based atmospheric ice sensing technique - A conceptual review Umair N. Mughal*, Muhammad S. Virk and M. Y. Mustafa High North Technology Center Department of Technology, Narvik University College, Narvik, Norway ABSTRACT Electromagnetic and vibrational properties of ice can be used to measure certain parameters such as ice thickness, type and icing rate. In this paper we present a review of the dielectric based measurement techniques for matter and the dielectric/spectroscopic properties of ice. Atmospheric Ice is a complex material with a variable dielectric constant, but precise calculation of this constant may form the basis for measurement of its other properties such as thickness and strength using some electromagnetic methods. Using time domain or frequency domain spectroscopic techniques, by measuring both the reflection and transmission characteristics of atmospheric ice in a particular frequency range, the desired parameters can be determined. Keywords: Atmospheric Ice, Sensor, Polar Molecule, Quantum Excitation, Spectroscopy, Dielectric 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. ATMOSPHERIC ICING Atmospheric icing is the term used to describe the accretion of ice on structures or objects under certain conditions. This accretion can take place either due to freezing precipitation or freezing fog. It is primarily freezing fog that causes this accumulation which occurs mainly on mountaintops [16]. It depends mainly on the shape of the object, wind speed, temperature, liquid water content (amount of liquid water in a given volume of air) and droplet size distribution (conventionally known as the median volume diameter). The major effects of atmospheric icing on structure are the static ice loads, wind action on iced structure and dynamic effects.

The problem however, is that SCW freezes at temperatures just above this hypothesized liquid-liquid critical point (LLCP) so direct experimental verification of its existence has yet to be realized. Here, we report two anomalies in the complex dielectric constant during warming in the form of a peak anomaly near Tp=203 K and a sharp minimum near Tm=212 K from ice samples prepared from SCW under hydrostatic pressures up to 760 MPa.
