Laboratory Studies of Cold Fog Dispersal by Compressed Air.
Abstract
Two compressed air systems for glaciating supercooled clouds were studied in the laboratory. The first system used the sudden expansion of compressed air. The second system used a continuous flow of air through nozzles of various designs, of which the supersonic nozzle was found to be the most efficient. The data were obtained at an ambient temperature of -4C, but data for other temperatures and pressures were obtained and are presented in the text.
