Abstract | AIAA 2005-658: Fifty years ago, the phenomenon of spongy icing was well-known to the in-flight icing community. Subsequently, it has been forgotten by aerodynamicists, although atmospheric scientists and marine scientists have continued to investigate it. In this paper, its occurrence is documented in two icing wind tunnels: the Altitude Icing Wind Tunnel located at the National Research Council Canada, and the CIGELE Atmospheric Icing Research Wind Tunnel located at the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi. Several dozen trials were undertaken in each icing wind tunnel using a NACA 0012 airfoil. The liquid fraction of the resulting ice accretions was measured calorimetrically, using the same calorimeter at both locations. The results show that ice accretions formed under certain in-flight conditions can contain unfrozen liquid water in amounts up to 10% or more. The liquid fraction increases with increasing LWC and rising static temperature, while it decreases with increasing airspeed. There remains some uncertainty as to the effect of MVD. |
