Abstract: The theory of Langmuir and Blodgett for the droplet collision efficiency was verified by growing rime ice accretions on rotating cylinders in a wind tunnel. The results show that the theory is in excellent agreement with ...

Abstract: A model is described which simulates icing on an unheated, non-rotating cylinder. Both rime and glaze ice can be accounted for. The model computes the thermodynamic conditions and the initial icing rate as a function of ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation of icing on non-rotating cylinders, under both wet and dry conditions was undertaken. Airspeeds of 30, 61 and 122 m s?1 appropriate to aircraft icing, liquid water contents of 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 ...
