2. Theoretical Considerations on the Effect of Pressure in lowering the Freezing-Point of Water
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 March 2015
Extract
At the commencement of this paper the two following propositions are laid down:
I. That water at the freezing-point may be converted into ice by a process solely mechanical, and yet without the final expenditure of any mechanical work.
II. That the freezing-point of water must become lower as the pressure to which the water is subjected is increased.
