Icing tunnel tests of a glycol-exuding porous leading edge ice protection system on a general aviation airfoilTests were conducted in the Icing Research Tunnel at the NASA Lewis Research Center to determine the characteristics of an ice protection system that distributes a glycol solution onto the leading edge of an airfoil through a porous surface material. Minimum fluid flow rates required to achieve anti-icing (no ice formation) were determined for various flight conditions and angles of attack. The ability of the system to remove ice formed on the airfoil before system activation was also investigated.
