Heterogeneous nucleation of bubbles on an advancing solidification front during freezing of water containing a dissolved gas has been experimentally and analytically studied. The formation of bubbles resulting from supersaturation of liquids is commonly encountered in different fields such as heat transfer, manufacturing, and bioscience.In this work, sizes of nucleating bubbles and concentration profiles of dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide gases in water ahead of the solidification front have been measured.From successful comparisons between the measured and predicted critical radii of nucleating bubbles and distributions of dissolved gas content, phenomena of heterogeneous nuc leation in a binary weak solution during the freezing process are quantitatively confirmed.
