Record #92441:

On the pressure drop through a uniform snow layer / Yin-chao Yen.

Title: On the pressure drop through a uniform snow layer / Yin-chao Yen.
Author(s): Yen, Yin-chao.
Date: 1988.
Publisher: Hanover, NH: US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory
In: CRREL Report. (1988.), Vol. 88-14 (1988)
Abstract: Describes study covering mass flow rate ranging from 1.62 to 67.45 g cm⁻² s⁻¹ and snow density varying from 0.377 to 0.472 g cm⁻³. Pressure drops ranging from 0.012 to 2.868 g cm⁻² were recorded. Plot of friction factor fp vs Rep (defined as classical Reynolds number Re for fluid flow through conduits) showed good representation of all experimental data. Least-squares analysis resulted in expression fp = 118/Rep¹.⁰⁹⁵ for snow, in comparison with expression fp = 64/Rep developed for fluid flow through porous media of randomly packed metallic and nonmetallic materials of spherical and nonspherical shapes.
