Abstract

Verbatim from NASA NTRS. Not paraphrased, not summarized.

This presentation provides a brief introduction to aircraft icing and NASA’s approach to understanding it. Specific topics that will be discussed include ice formation on an aircraft, the different types of ice, parameters that influence icing, engine and rotorcraft icing, and NASA’s approach to understanding icing through flight tests, wind tunnels tests, and computational tools. The presentation concludes with a look into the future of aviation and how it will be affected by icing.
