An Experimental Investigation on the Size Distribution of Snow Particles during Artificial Snow Making

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
For artificial snowfall, snow particle size can have a direct impact on snow quality. The operating conditions of the snow-makers and environmental factors will influence the atomization and crystallization processes of artificial snow making, which ...

Simulation of Motion Characteristics of Snow and Ice Particles during Snow Drift in Vehicle Artificial Climate Chamber

open access: yesZhileng xuebao, 2022
Blizzards seriously affect the safe operation of trains. To prevent traffic accidents, the international standard CEN-TR 16251 proposes that snow drift tests should be conducted in an artificial climate room before trains go online.

Preliminary evalution of artificial snow cover as a method for the protection of the vine during winter in Québec

open access: yesOENO One, 2000
The sensitivity of the vine to cold temperatures makes it a high risk crop in Québec. Winter colds during January and February can reach through the course of several days - 30° C and consequently the intense cold can damage the buds.

Comparison of AC Flashover Performance of Snow-Accreted Insulators Under Natural and Artificial Simulation Environments

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
The research on snow-accreted insulators have been performed in an artificial climate chamber. However, the differences in the distribution, density and compactness of snow accretion under natural and artificial simulation environments cause differences ...

Soot-on-snow experiment: artificial deposition of light-absorbing particles onto snow surfaces in 2018 [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The absorption of shortwave irradiance in snow depends on the physical properties of snow (e.g., snow grain size and shape, liquid water content, etc.) and light-absorbing particles (LAP).

The NCAR–FAA Snow Machine: An Artificial Snow-Generation System [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2018
AbstractThe National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) developed an artificial snow-generation system designed to operate in a laboratory cold chamber for testing aircraft anti-icing fluids under controlled conditions. Flakes of ice are produced by shaving an ice cylinder with a rotating carbide bit; the resulting artificial snow is dispersed by ...

Temporal stability of long-term satellite and reanalysis products to monitor snow cover trends [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
Monitoring snow cover to infer climate change impacts is now feasible using Earth observation data together with reanalysis products derived from Earth system models and data assimilation. Temporal stability becomes essential when these products are used
