| description abstract | A vertical wind tunnel using an artificially generated supercooled cloud was constructed to study snowfall processes. It is 18 m high and operates to a temperature as low as ?25°C. Ultrasonic atomizers supply the supercooled water droplets, and ice crystals are generated by an automated adiabatic expansion of compressed air. The system operation is preprogrammed. Snowfall is sustained for about 20 min after injection of the seed ice crystals. Ice crystals of various forms and sizes including dendritic crystals up to 2 mm in diameter, and snowflakes more than 4 mm in diameter were successfully grown in the tunnel. | |
