defrostings
Warming frozen things
Defrostings are instances of removing frost or ice, or of thawing something frozen.
The word appears in contexts involving freezers, windshields, or frozen food: After several defrostings, the old freezer finally gave out.
It can also refer to thawing cycles: The meat had gone through too many defrostings to be safe.
