Snow removal equipment in Korea has been developed to remove snow from roads by pushing it away with snow shovels or dispersing it into the air with snow blowers. However, in urban areas, it is difficult to use snow blowers. And piled snow on sidewalks not only hinder pedestrians from walking by, but also melt onto the roads during the day and freeze at night, causing traffic accidents. As a solution to this, there has been a need to develop a machine which melts snow on the place where high priority is given for snow clearing such as airports, roads of frequent black ice occurrence, and main traffic facilities. This paper describes the main design points and experimental results in developing the snow melting system composed of the burner, blower, water tank, etc. Hot air from the burner spouts into the water tank and some of it rises through the outer jacket where hot air is mixed with water in the tank, heating it. Hot air spouted to the bottom of water tank and hot water pouring from the head of the outer jacket are two sources of snow melting in designing the equipment.
