A Preliminary Approach towards Rotor Icing Modeling Using the Unsteady Vortex Lattice Method

UAV rotors are at a high risk of ice accumulation during their operations in icing conditions. Thermal ice protection systems (IPSs) are being employed as a means of protecting rotor blades from ice, yet designing the appropriate IPS with the required heating density remains a challenge. In this wor...
