The objective of this Major Qualifying Project is to create a system that facilitates the distribution of machine made snow. This objective was chosen to help reduce the need for labor in the grooming of Cross Country ski trails and to help alleviate the environmental impacts of grooming. The method used to complete the design was Axiomatic Design, a theory originally articulated by Nam Suh. Current snowmaking techniques were reviewed to find places to improve snowmaking. The result of using the Axiomatic Design method was a design decomposition, heat transfer equations, and a Computer Aided Design model.
