The interaction of radio frequency electromagnetic fields with atmospheric water droplets and application to aircraft ice prevention
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Technology Laboratory, 1982, 1982)
In this work the physics of advanced microwave anti-icing systems, which pre-heat impinging supercooled water droplets prior to impact, is studied by means of a computer simulation and is found to be feasible. In order to ...
An experimental and theoretical study of the ice accretion process during artificial and natural icing conditions
(Cambridge, Mass. : MIT, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1986], 1986)
Real-time measurements of ice growth during artificial and natural icing conditions were conducted using an ultrasonic pulse-echo technique. This technique allows ice thickness to be measured with an accuracy of ł0.5 mm; ...
