Enhancement of the Melting of an Ice Cylinder by the Combination with the Condensation of a Saturated Steam Flow

Melting of an ice by a steam is sometimes employed, for example, to remove a frost, an ice, and a snow that adhered to the structure surface. It is usually regarded that the melting performance by steam is naturally higher than that by high-temperature dry air due to the effect of large latent heat...
