| Abstract | Flight tests were performed in an artificial icing cloud on a Kaman HUZK-1 helicopter eguipped with a prototype electro-thermal rotor blade de-icing system. The results of the icing flights showed that icing protection will be required on this helicopter mainly because of icing in the engine inlet and the effects of uncontrolled shedding of ice from the rotor blades. During the runs on which it was tested, the installed main rotor blade de-icing system did not operate satisfactorily under all conditions, and the need for modifications to improve its performance was indicated. |
