Frazil ice recorder tests / by J.S. Ford and N.M. Madsen.: En13-5/86-107E-PDF

"A means of recording the presence and quantity of frazil ice, over an extended period, has been devised using a calorimetric method. A prototype system was tested in the laboratory and gave reasonable data. In one of the field tests, the sensing body was placed ahead of the trash rack of a hydroelectric generator. Comments are made on the first field data. Improvements in the prototype are required. The use of a profiling mechanism is proposed"--Abstract.
