University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineering research associate Dr. Yao Ren exposes an ice-covered metal surface to dry ice to cool it further. Researchers found that a material’s thermal properties play a critical role in determining whether ice remains attached to a surface — a discovery that may lead to the design of future deicing systems for aircraft and wind turbines.
