In-Flight Icing on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and Its Aerodynamic Penalties [PDF]
Progress in Flight Physics, 2017 A numerical prediction of ice accretion on HQ309, SD7032, and SD7037 airfoils and its aerodynamic penalties is described. Ice accretion prediction on a three-dimensional (3D) swept wing is also presented. In addition to airflow and drop trajectory solvers, NRC's (National Research Council) original, 3D, morphogenetic icing modeling approach has been ...
