| Abstract | The total weight penalties attendant upon anti-icing the engines of a four engine jet transport by hot air surface heating, electrical surface heating, or alcohol, are calculated for atmospheric conditions where low altitude icing may be expected and also where high altitude icing may occur.
It is concluded that hot air surface heating will show the lowest total weight penalty except for extensive high altitude icing where the alcohol system is slightly superior.
Alcohol anti-icing is generally the next lightest system except for extensive icing at low altitude where the electrical surface heating system is of about equal weight. |
