Mitigating snowdrift at the elevated SANAE IV research station in Antarctica: CFD simulation and field application

The elevated and aerodynamically streamlined South African Antarctic research base SANAE IV, in Queen Maud Land, off the Fimbul ice-shelf in Antarctica, exhibits unique wind driven snow drift formations. The longitudinal snowdrifts that form behind the interconnecting links that join the elevated research buildings are approximately 4 m high, 15 m wide and 60 m long are annually removed during ...
