Abstract

PURPOSE:To cut down one of processes of making a layer of artificial snow by making unnecessary the process of distributing water over a layer of granular materials, by a method wherein the water in a mixture of granular ice materials and the water is distributed as granular material-freezing water, in the distribution of the mixture. CONSTITUTION:A layer B1 of granular materials is formed on a floor 2, granular ice materials and water are supplied on the layer B1 and the water is contained in the layer B1, following which the layer B1 in which the water is contained is allowed to freeze by supplying a refrigerant for freezing from a thermal source apparatus to a cooling pipe 3. A layer of the granular ice materials stratified on the layer B2 frozen is used as a layer A for artificial snow. A supplying means for the granular ice materials and the water distributes supercooled water cooled by a cooling apparatus 6 over the layer B1, through a nozzle 7 or the like, and turns ice particles produced in the supercooled water by impact with the distribution of the water, into the granular ice materials to be supplied on the layer B1. In this way, a process of distributing the water over the layer of the granular material is made unnecessary and one of processes of making the layer of the artificial snow can be omitted, and thus the cost of installation can be reduced since an ice-making machine becomes unnecessary and a transporting means is simplified.
