High tech way to defrost your car windows in less than a second
Dartmouth College engineering professor Victor Petrenko, not to be confused with one of the Champions on Ice, has devised a way to use a burst of electricity to remove ice caked on walls or windows. For surfaces coated with a special film, the jolt gets rid of ice in less than a second, far less time than it takes to hack at it with an ice scraper.
A quick burst of electricity will heat the surface to about 1 degree Celcius then turning back off…this allows the first few microns under the sheet of ice to melt and then the water is used to allow the ice to slide away…this seems like a great technology and they’re already looking into Jet Plane windows, and inside your freezer…Welcome to CrzyLand
