Experimental measurements of heat transfer from an iced surface during artificial and natural cloud icing conditionsThe heat transfer behavior of accreting ice surfaces in natural (flight test) and simulated (wind tunnel) cloud icing conditions have been studied. Observations of wet and dry ice growth regimes as measured by ultrasonic pulse-echo techniques were made. Observed wet and dry ice growth regimes at the stagnation point of a cylinder were compared with those predicted using a quasi steady-state heat balance model. A series of heat transfer coefficients were employed by the model to infer the local heat transfer behavior of the actual ice surfaces. The heat transfer in the stagnation region was generally inferred to be higher in wind tunnel icing tests than in natural, flight, icing conditions.
