Aerodynamic heating and the deflection of drops by an obstacle in an air stream in relation to aircraft icing (open access)

Aerodynamic heating and the deflection of drops by an obstacle in an air stream in relation to aircraft icing

From Summary: "Two topics of interest to persons attempting to apply the heat method of preventing ice formation on aircraft are considered. Surfaces moving through air at high speed are shown, both theoretically and experimentally, to be subject to important aerodynamic heating effects that will materially reduce the heat required to prevent ice. Numerical calculations of the path of water drops in an air stream around a circular cylinder are given. From these calculations, information is obtained on the percentage of the swept area cleared of drops."
