Convection visualisation, Turin, Dec 2014.
We conducted some convection experiments at the Department of Physics, University of Torino. The main aim is to investigate the brine rejection process during sea ice freezing. This is a small tank for tests and we also make some movies with it.
The sinking water (blue) has density 1.028 g/cm^3; the top layer (clear) 1.027 g/cm^3; the bottom layer (yellow) 1.030 g/cm^3. The brown water indicates mixing between the blue and light water.
