Summary:

An investigation has been made of the effect of aerodynamic heating on propeller-blade temperatures and its relation to propeller icing. The blade temperature rise resulting from aerodynamic heating was measured and the relation between the resulting blade temperatures and the outer limit of the iced-over region was examined. The test results have indicated that the outermost station at which ice formed on a propeller blade was determined by the blade temperature rise resulting from the aerodynamic heating at that point. An empirical relation between the blade-element velocity and the air temperature at which ice would form was established by the data.
