   The wall of this ice tube is about 0.1 mm (0.004 in) and the width 5 mm (0.2 in). As a result of this growth process, the interior of a growing icicle is liquid water. The growth of an icicle both in length and in width can be calculated and is a complicated function of air temperature, wind speed, and the water flux into the icicle. [ 3 ]
