Abstract
The simplified dependencies for estimation the fraction of the ice formed in a drop of fresh water when falling in the atmospheric air have been obtained. Based on mathematical modeling, the intensity of the freezing of salt-water droplets with various variants of salt rejection from the freezing boundary has been determined. An estimate of the increase in air temperature in a droplet plume consisting of drops of salt water has been given. The fraction of ice in a drop of salt water falling in atmospheric air and in a droplet plume has been calculated depending on the air temperature and the size of the drops.
