Study of the Atomization Performance of Swirl Nozzle for Snow-making Machine
The flow rate, spray cone angle, and droplet diameter of swirl nozzles are key parameters in the snow-making process of an outdoor snow-maker. Aimed at the swirl nozzle of a domestic outdoor snow-maker, a mathematical model was established based on the ...

Owing to less natural snow reliability as a result of climate change on the one hand, and the demand of higher standards by winter tourists on the other hand, the production of artificial snow in ski resorts has increased substantially during the last 20 years and is likely to increase further in future. Little research has been conducted on the impact

A Preliminary LCA Analysis of Snowmaking in Fiemme Valley
Modern ski resorts have been using systems of technical snow for many years: initially they were used to compensate the limits of natural snow but today it is actually the natural snow that is used as an integration to artificial snow and not vice versa.

Snowmaking as an adaptation strategy in ski resorts - Avoiding maladaptation by a climate service
Presentation given at the UArctic Congress in Oulu, Finland on 5 September 2018 in a session on Arctic tourism and global change. The presentation is based on the WP5 CS1 team's work on co-designing a climate service for winter tourism industry in Northern Finland within the Blue-Action project (2016-2021).

Research Developments and Applications of Ice Slurry
Ice slurry is a phase-changing material composed of liquid water, ice crystals, and a freezing point depressant. It is finer and more uniform compared to ice cubes or flake ices and is used in many industries, such as food preservation, comfortable ...
