An icing test program was carried out during the 1986-87 and 1987-88 icing seasons at the Fluidyne Icing Tunnel. The testing consisted of evaluating the icing characteristics and aerodynamic performance characteristics of two thin, two-dimensional airfoil sections. The two airfoils were a NACA Series 16-203 and a Hamilton Standard PF1-304, 3 and 4 percent thickness-to-chord ratio airfoils, respectively. These airfoils are representative of the thin airfoils currently being evaluated for Prop-Fan propulsion systems. The tests were conducted over a wide range of icing conditions, angles-of-attack, and Mach numbers (0.3 to 0.8).
