A method of detecting supercooled large droplet icing conditions on a commercial transport airplane

摘要

A METHOD OF DETECTING SUPERCOOLED LARGE DROPLET ICING CONDITIONS ON A COMMERCIAL TRANSPORT AIRPLANE A method and apparatus for an ice detection system (806). The ice detection system (806) comprises a first sensor (400) located on a leading edge (412) of a vertical stabilizer (120) on an aircraft (100), a second sensor (402) located on a first side (414) of the vertical stabilizer (120), and a third sensor (404) located on a second side (416) of the vertical stabilizer (120). The first sensor (400) is configured to detect a first type of icing condition (860) for the aircraft (100). The second sensor (402) is configured to detect a second type of icing condition (860) for the aircraft (100). The third sensor (404) is configured to detect the second type of icing condition (860) for the aircraft (100). 424 406 402 418 412 422 '426 A-- FIG. 4 500 410 ' 508
