This invited paper will reflect on some of the advances made in the last decade by the author
and his research groups in the application of modern CFD methods to the simulation of in …

Even if electro-thermal ice protection systems (IPS) consume less energy when operating in
de-icing mode than in anti-icing mode, they still need to be optimized for energy usage. The …

Two-dimensional and quasi-3D in-flight ice accretion simulation codes have been widely
used by the aerospace industry for the last two decades as an aid to the certification …

A meta model was developed to evaluate the performance of electrothermal anti-icing
systems for a rotorcraft engine air intake. A reduced-order model based on proper …

Purpose Responsible for lift generation, the helicopter rotor is an essential component to
protect against ice accretion. As rotorcraft present a smaller wing cross-section and a lower …

The design of efficient thermal ice protection systems is a challenging task as these systems
operate in complex environments involving several coupled physical phenomena such as …

LEED air anti-icing systems rely on convective heat transfer provided by hot air from the high-
pressure compressor of the jet engine. The hot air is directed to the wing leading edge via …

Various constrained problem formulations for the optimization of an electro-thermal wing anti-
icing system in both running-wet and evaporative regimes are presented. The numerical …

Experimental and computational studies were conducted to investigate the performance of
an inner-liner bleed air anti-ice system used in regional and general aviation business jets …

The optimization of electrothermal in-flight anti-icing systems is presented by introducing a
general methodology. The optimization goal was to achieve an ice-free area over the …
