TY - JOUR TI - Applications of “snowind” engineering – climatic wind tunnel methods AU - Delpech, Philippe AU - Thiis, Thomas TI - Applications of “snowind” engineering – climatic wind tunnel methods AB - Transport and deviation of snow by wind induce many constraints on buildings, vehicles and industrial systems. A selection of questions from snow-wind engineering are presented in the paper. The experimental method that was undertaken to investigate these questions makes use of a large climatic wind tunnel, partly designed to address snow engineering problems at full scale: snow penetration in buildings, into ventilation systems of buildings and vehicles and snow or ice accretions on structures.
