Summary

Book chapter reviewing frost formed from very small amounts of water vapour, as in cryogenic wind tunnels, spacecraft in orbit, microchannel heat exchangers and cryopumps. It covers how such frost nucleates, grows, deposits and sublimates, and compares the ways of measuring it: visual and optical methods and low-temperature micro-mass measurement, with their uses and limits.
