A Method for Calculating the Heat Required for Windshield Thermal Ice Prevention Based on Extensive Flight Tests in Natural Icing Conditions
Description:
Report presenting an equation for calculating the heat flow required from the surface of an internally heated windshield in order to prevent ice accretions during flight in specified icing conditions. Results regarding the internally heated windshield characteristics, external discharge windshields, and prediction of heating requirements for both types of windshields are provided.
