Industrial impact of meteorology

The influence of meteorology on industrial production is very extensive. Whether it is the choice of factory site, the design of spacious rooms, or the storage, manufacturing, product storage and transportation of raw materials, it is affected by meteorological conditions such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind and solar radiation. Especially disastrous weather, such as tropical storms and typhoons, heavy rains and floods, interruption of power transmission lines or damage to factories and equipment, flooded warehouses, casualties of workers, inability to go to work, etc. Insufficient water supply caused by drought; Fire caused by thunder and lightning; Freezing cracks and other freezing injuries of water pipes and oil pipelines caused by low temperature; High temperature and low humidity are easy to induce fire and explosion; High temperature and humidity can easily lead to corrosion and mildew of raw materials, and affect workers' health and production efficiency, which directly or indirectly affect industrial production. Through investigation and analysis, it is concluded that there are more industrial accidents in high temperature season than in other seasons; When the temperature and humidity in the workshop of cotton mill suddenly drop, the broken ends of cotton yarn increase. According to the investigation of the Gas Bureau in Cangzhou, Hebei Province, the production of sea salt is not only affected by the precipitation weather. But also affected by temperature. When cold air attacks, when the daily temperature drops more than 8℃ and the lowest temperature is below 5℃, mirabilite can be produced, reducing the salt production; When the maximum temperature is above 33℃, the relative humidity is below 3% and the wind speed is above 8m/s, the specific gravity of brine will change rapidly due to the increase of evaporation, which will easily produce magnesium chloride and affect the salt yield. In a word, meteorology affects all aspects of industrial production.
