Particle-Size Distribution of Pulverized Snow
Abstract A microscopic method for the determination of particle-size distribution of pulverized snow was worked out. The method gives satisfactory distribution curves, presenting the number of particles as a function of their cross-sectional “areas”. The measurements were made by means of a filar mi...
