In　this　work,　molecular　dynamics　simulation　was　employed　to　study　the　icing　process　on　a　platinum　surface　under　the　influence　of　the　solid-water　interfacial　heat　transfer.　It　is　found　that　the　heat　transfer　can　play　a　significant　role　in　the　heterogeneous　icing　process,　particularly　for　hydrophobic　surfaces　with　weak　interfacial　bonding.　The　ice　nucleation　occurs　slowly　since　the　water　molecules　have　to　be　cooled　down　by　the　interfacial　heat　transfer.　However,　the　ice　can　grow　faster　on　a　surface　with　the　effect　of　heat　transfer,　because　the　water　molecules　can　be　re-arranged　in　ice-like　structure　during　the　cooling　period.　As　the　interfacial　bonding　strength　increases,　the　effect　of　interfacial　heat　transfer　can　be　neglected,　and　the　icing　process　can　be　enhanced,　which　is　attributed　to　the　high　free　energy　barrier　and　weak　diffusion　effect.　The　findings　in　this　paper　provide　an　in-depth　understanding　of　the　effect　of　the　interfacial　bonding　on　the　heterogeneous　icing　process.　©　2025　Beijing　University　of　Technology.　All　rights　reserved.
