Iranian Technology Fights against Frosting from Fruit Orchards to Airplane Wings
Researchers of a technological company located in West Azerbaijan province’s Science and Technology Park in Northwestern Iran produced and presented to the market an antifreeze system for the fruit orchards.
The anti-freeze device is a 12-meter mast and structure with a 6-meter propeller which is completely smart and can measure and store the necessary information before the frost occurs.
The device, which is equipped with a temperature sensor and the graph of temperature changes of the geographical area, turns on automatically before freezing situation.
The system automatically receives all information of the garden and then starts analyzing and storing the recieved data. Later it delivers the information to the gardener by sending an SMS and enables him/her to control it remotely.
Also, another system produced by the Iranian researchers prevents frost in aircraft’s wings.
Airplane wings have moving parts and when the plane lands on the runway, dew drops may sit on these parts and freeze. The Iran-made antifreeze product prevents freezing.
The antifreeze system of airplane wings has beeen produced in one of the technological companies in Iran, inspired by the behavior of the desert beetle; when the dew drops fall on the desert beetle, it secretes a substance that causes the water to evaporate.
