Abstract

Purpose: The possibility of detecting ice 0 by deposition of water vapor on quartz glass dielectric plates placed in the cavity of a microwave rectangular resonator near the frequency of 2.8 GHz is investigated.

Experimental: Measurements of the characteristics of the resonator filled with air at atmospheric pressure in the temperature range from 5 to –140 °C have been performed. Variations of the transmittance power of the resonator at the resonance frequency and its quality factor of fit were found with their characteristic change at a temperature of –23 °C. This temperature corresponds to the formation of ice 0 from supercooled water. It is assumed that in the experiment, films of ice 0 are detected in the response of the resonator to the temperature change in the investigated interval.

Conclusions: This result is of interest due to the possible influence of water vapor condensation on the functioning of a variety of technical devices in terrestrial conditions when ice 0 is formed
