Description

[0001] This application claims priority from U.S. provisional Ser. No. 61 / 463,970 filed on Feb. 26, 2011 for the invention titled “Indoor and Outdoor Thermal Storage, Snow and Ice Making Method”.FIELD OF INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to making of artificial snow or ice for outdoor as well as indoor artificial ski slope for winter recreational activities, all year round for indoor facilities and at least half year or longer for outdoor facilities. Wherein, thermal storage unit is charged by refrigeration means. Cooling is drawn later from the thermal storage means to make snow or ice to be blown over the slope (in case of ice, crushing the ice into smaller pieces first) containing the thermal storage unit which can then keep the ice / snow cold for longer periods of time. In the alternative snow or ice can be produced in an outdoor or enclosed Air Conditioned environment.BACKGROUND
