Abstract
Thermal-bubble plumes in a freshwater environment are studied to determine their ice control capabilities. A computer model is developed to optimize the operation of thermal-bubble installations when designed to control ice. Steady-state and transient simulations of ice control are presented. It is conceivable to fully computerize the operation of thermal-bubble installations by combining data acquisition, data analysis, computer simulation, and control automation. Key words: ice control, ice management, thermal-bubble plume, computer simulation.Keywords
