Effects of Simulated Ice Formation on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of an Airfoil

Report presenting an investigation of the size and distribution of ice particles on the wings of aircraft and how they affect the aerodynamic characteristics. A simulated ice formation was generated from survey information received from aircraft pilots and was tested to determine the impact on the lift characteristics.
