FIELD: ice and snow heating; changing adhesive strength of ice contacting object surface.
SUBSTANCE: one of proposed systems used to change adhesive strength of ice stuck to object surface has electrode electrically insulated from surface and dc power supply such as storage battery connected to object and to electrode. Best solution is inserting insulating material between object and electrode. As an alternative, object is covered with ferroelectric, lossy dielectric, ferromagnetic, or semiconductor material. Electromagnetic energy initiates heat generation by this covering which causes thawing of ice and snow.
EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of ice and snow removal from surfaces.
