The purpose of this work is to study a snowbreak fence model based on standing wave effects. The article offers a new snow protection model based on aerodynamic effects, using the principle of a standing air wave. According to the laws of physics, a standing wave can occur either at the end of a closed pipe or at the end of an open pipe. The standing wave in an open pipe can be calculated by gas dynamics formulae. A similar effect occurs in arranging the snow protection with apertured shields. The results of a model experiment are presented to justify the retention of snow masses before the apertured shield. Two options of shields were considered, namely, standard and modified. The modified option was found more effective.
