ABSTRACT:
A pair of CO.sub.2 snow forming nozzles are provided within a tank for receiving CO.sub.2 snow and the nozzles are mounted in an upper portion of the tank with their outlet ends directly opposing each other and spaced apart approximately 121/2 inches. A supply of liquid CO.sub.2 at approximately 300 psi is communicated with the inlet ends of the nozzles for simultaneous discharge of CO.sub.2 gas from the nozzle outlet ends and opposing impact of the discharges of CO.sub.2 from the nozzle outlet ends in an impact area disposed centrally between the nozzle outlet ends. In addition, the liquid CO.sub.2 is communicated with the inlet ends of the nozzles through a supply line therefor constructed of good heat transfer material and including an intermediate length portion passing centrally through the area of opposing impact of the discharges of CO.sub.2 from the nozzle outlet ends, thereby chilling the supply line to an extent sufficient to reduce the temperature of the liquid CO.sub.2 being supplied to the inlet ends of the nozzles to substantially the triple point temperature.
