The manufacture of large samples of monocrystalline ice under microcomputer control

A simple apparatus comprising a calorimeter with three independently driven heating coils is described which consistently produces cylindrical single crystals of ice about 100 mm in diameter and 150 mm in length. The manufacturing cycle involves a quasistatic cooling process entirely under microcomp...

Description
Summary:A simple apparatus comprising a calorimeter with three independently driven heating coils is described which consistently produces cylindrical single crystals of ice about 100 mm in diameter and 150 mm in length. The manufacturing cycle involves a quasistatic cooling process entirely under microcomputer control and of about 90 h duration.
