❄️ Frost Heave: Freezing Front, Ice Lenses and Cryosuction in a Soil Column (2D section)

Vertical section of a 60 cm soil column cooled from above with groundwater below. Choose silt, sand or clay, the surface and base temperatures and the water supply, and watch the freezing front advance, ice lenses grow and the surface rise. Uses the same enthalpy-conduction and ice-lens model as the 3D page, with four numerical checks.
