Numerical Simulation of Aircraft Icing under Local Thermal Protection State
Aerospace, 2022 The icing phenomenon seriously threatens flight safety, and, therefore, the aircraft needs to be equipped with an icing protection system. Icing may still occur when the anti-icing system is in operation when the protection range or protection power is ...

NANOTEXTURED SURFACES FOR ANTI-ICING [PDF]
International Heat Transfer Conference 16, 2018 Unwanted ice formation on surfaces is ubiquitous and often leads to catastrophic events, resulting in economic loss and costing human lives. Superhydrophobic nanotextured surfaces can circumvent such surface icing events either by minimizing the contact time between supercooled metastable liquid and surface or by suppressing ice nucleation events ...
