Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an anti-icing device, which is mainly used for anti-icing and anti-icing at the leading edge of the wing / tail of an aircraft, and belongs to the field of aircraft anti-icing and deicing. Background technique [0002] Icing is one of the main causes of aircraft flight accidents, especially the icing on the leading edge of the wing and tail of the aircraft, which will lead to increased airfoil resistance, decreased lift, reduced critical angle of attack, and deterioration of maneuverability and stability , especially can cause the controllability of the aircraft under the take-off and landing state to be out of control, thus causing serious flight accidents. [0003] For the anti-icing of wings and tails during flight, hot air anti-icing technology is widely used at present: that is, during the flight, the hot air drawn from the compressor of the aircraft engine is used to melt the ice. Although this hot gas anti-icing technolog...

Problems solved by technology

Although this hot gas anti-icing technology can prevent and deicing to a certain extent, it takes a long time to deicing and consumes a lot of energy. At the same time, due to its large thermal inertia, it is easy to form ice lumps behind the heating area.
