This report provides, in a single reference document, an engineering summary of selected technical data on airframe icing conditions, methods of detecting, preventing, and removing ice from airframes in flight, and methods of testing ice protection systems to ensure their adequacy. An aircraft engineer can use this report to design adequate ice protection systems for any type aircraft for any flight mission profile. The work done in preparing this report covered a survey, study, analysis, and summary of the vast amount of technical literature on airframe icing available in the world today. Key technical data on airframe icing was selected and summarized for the report. Results of the work provide a design engineer with the following: a. Complete statistical data on the earth's icing weather conditions that can be used as design criteria for airframe ice protection systems. b. An explanation of the physics of airframe ice collection. c. A discussion of known methods of airframe ice protection, and formulas and data to be used in their design. d. Selected specific applications of ice protection systems to conventional aircraft airframes. e. Data on known methods and systems for detection of airframe icing. f. Various methods of testing ice protection systems and aircraft for adequacy. (Author)
