Electrical Indicator of Imminent Freezing in Supercooled Water

Abstract

Data is presented that demonstrate electrical activity and evidences of dipole alignment in supercooled water and heavy water before and after the onset of freezing. Voltage signals as high as 13 mV have been recorded. In some cases up to 3 seconds before latent heat is released and freezing began. The polarity of the voltage signals is suggestive of molecule dipole alignment prior to freezing.
