ABSTRACT:
The spaced plates of a capacitor are immersed in water adjacent water intake grating so that water flowing toward the grating passes between and in contact with the plates so that frazil ice may accrete on the facing surfaces of the plates. As accretion occurs, the capacitance changes to indicate the amount of accretion of frazil ice which is detected thereby providing an indication of the amount of accretion of frazil ice on the grating.
