Abstract
The possibility of using multilayer structures based on transparent polymeric films with conducting coatings as heaters for removing snow cover is discussed. It is established that the heaters with cellular polycarbonate slabs 4 mm in thickness are more efficient. The specific capacity spent by these heaters on warming by 20°C is 300 W/m2; for comparison, the capacity of the heaters pasted to the insulating glass unit surface is 420 W/m2.
