The difference between natural snow in ski resorts and artificial snow making machines

As we all know, entertainment activities in the south of China are generally diversified, such as swimming, mountain climbing, amusement parks, cycling, gyms, etc., but in the north, there is a sport that has never been involved in the south, and that is outdoor skiing. Most of the snow factories in the north will be open to the public during the month. At this time, people will regularly go to the ski resorts they are familiar with and meet with three or five friends for a day or two. However, most of the natural snow has seasonal restrictions. This ski resort will order several snow-making machines. When the natural snow is less, the snow-making machine will be turned on to make snow for the ski resort. This is also to provide ski lovers with a better skiing experience.

There are two types of snow, one is artificial snow and the other is natural snow. The ski resorts are basically built with snow-making machines, because most areas do not have such a large amount of snowfall. Second, the snow quality of machine-made snow is harder than natural snow, which is more suitable for skiing, ski laps, etc. . Natural snow has a soft texture and large water content, which cannot meet the snow demand for ice and snow venues.

Examples of artificial snowmaking machines have appeared in the world for a long time. In 2009, the "Bird's Nest" was focused on the winter park sightseeing activities with the theme of ice and snow sports. Artificial snowmaking machines were also used. The machine uses the principle of simulating the falling of snowflakes and uses the water-gas ratio adjustment to produce snowflakes under suitable environmental conditions, so its safety is recognized. A snow machine, millions of snowflake silver. There is no age limit in the ski resort, safe and pollution-free fine snow that can be played by the elderly and children.


Natural snow is more complicated and is related to the temperature and humidity of the area. For example, powder snow in Japan has high humidity, high snow temperature, stickiness, and high friction; sugar snow in Altay, Xinjiang has low humidity, low snow temperature, and granular. The friction is small and it is not easy to agglomerate. Soft snow is more fun and comfortable to fall.

The essential difference between artificial snowmaking and natural snow is that artificial snowmaking has a longer storage period than natural snow, and it is not easy to melt and decompose under high temperature and light. The water content is low, and the fine, dry and soft snow feels good in contact with snow, and is more suitable for skiing. Playgrounds, play snow parks and other venues. Natural snow has a short storage period, and needless to say when it encounters high temperatures and sunlight, it is not easy to maintain whiteness, has a high water content, and it is easy to wet clothes.

In short, every ski resort will be equipped with one or more snow-making machines, even in places with sufficient snowfall, it will be equipped with snow making machines for later snow making and snow supplementation. And now snowmaking machines are also widely used, such as snow sculpture projects, snow parks, large and small ski resorts and other ice and snow venues.
