Download or read book Icing Protection for a Turboject Transport Airplane: Heating Requirements, Methods of Protection, and Performance Penalties written by Thomas F. Gelder and published by . This book was released on 1953 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The heating requirements for several methods of icing protection for a typical turbojet transport airplane operating over a probable range of icing conditions are evaluated, and the airplane performance penalties associated with providing this protection from various energy source are assessed. Continuous heating requirements and airplane penalties for the turbojet transport are considered considerably increased over those for lower-speed aircraft. Heating requirements can be substantially reduced by use of a cyclic de-icing system and choice of the proper energy source.
