APPLICATION OF FLUIDIC DEVICES TO A SPRINKLING NOZZLE WITH THE AIM OF MELTING SNOW ON THE TRACK

One of the most important technical problems in extension of the Shin Kansen high-speed rail network is development of countermeasures for snow in regions where fall is heavy. Sprinkling of water through a special self-oscillating sprinkling nozzle has been investigated as a method for rapid removal of snow from the track. Delivery of relatively large droplets from fluidic devices on the wayside requires development.
