Book Ice Adhesion

Download or read book Ice Adhesion written by K. L. Mittal and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book presents ways to mitigate the disastrous effects of snow/ice accumulation and discusses the mechanisms of new coatings deicing technologies. The strategies currently used to combat ice accumulation problems involve chemical, mechanical or electrical approaches. These are expensive and labor intensive, and the use of chemicals raises serious environmental concerns. The availability of truly icephobic surfaces or coatings will be a big boon in preventing the devastating effects of ice accumulation. Currently, there is tremendous interest in harnessing nanotechnology in rendering surfaces icephobic or in devising icephobic surface materials and coatings, and all signals indicate that such interest will continue unabated in the future. As the key issue regarding icephobic materials or coatings is their durability, much effort is being spent in developing surface materials or coatings which can be effective over a long period. With the tremendous activity in this arena, there is strong hope that in the not too distant future, durable surface materials or coatings will come to fruition. This book contains 20 chapters by subject matter experts and is divided into three parts— Part 1: Fundamentals of Ice Formation and Characterization; Part 2: Ice Adhesion and Its Measurement; and Part 3: Methods to Mitigate Ice Adhesion. The topics covered include: factors influencing the formation, adhesion and friction of ice; ice nucleation on solid surfaces; physics of ice nucleation and growth on a surface; condensation frosting; defrosting properties of structured surfaces; relationship between surface free energy and ice adhesion to surfaces; metrology of ice adhesion; test methods for quantifying ice adhesion strength to surfaces; interlaboratory studies of ice adhesion strength; mechanisms of surface icing and deicing technologies; icephobicities of superhydrophobic surfaces; anti-icing using microstructured surfaces; icephobic surfaces: features and challenges; bio-inspired anti-icing surface materials; durability of anti-icing coatings; durability of icephobic coatings; bio-inspired icephobic coatings; protection from ice accretion on aircraft; and numerical modeling and its application to inflight icing.

Book Design  Modeling and Testing of an Electro Thermal Ice Protection System for Wind Turbines

Download or read book Design Modeling and Testing of an Electro Thermal Ice Protection System for Wind Turbines written by David Getz and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a substantial growth in the total installed wind energy capacity worldwide, especially in China and the United States. Icing difficulties have been encountered depending on the location of the wind farms. Wind turbines are adapting rotor ice protection approaches used in rotorcraft applications to reduce aerodynamic performance degradation related to ice formation. Electro-thermal heating is one of the main technologies used to protect rotors from ice accretion and it is one of the main technologies being considered to protect wind turbines. In this research, an anti-icing configuration using electro-thermal heating was explored to find optimum power density requirements to keep the rotor blade free of ice at all times. The objective of these experiments were to identify the feasibility of the power requirements from the stake holders and determine an initial power density for the de-icing approach. The electro-thermal heater system located on the spinning wind turbine representative blade sections were powered through a slip-ring. The wind turbine sections were scale models of the 80% span region of a generic 1.5 MW wind turbine blade. The icing cloud impact velocity was matched with a 1.5 MW wind turbine at full production. Three icing conditions were selected for this research: Light, Medium and Severe. Light icing conditions were created using clouds at -8C with a 0.2 g/m3 liquid water content (LWC) and water droplets of 20 m median volumetric diameter (MVD). Medium icing condition clouds had a LWC of 0.4 g/m3 and 20 m MVD, also at -8C. Severe icing conditions had an LWC of 0.9 g/m3 and 35 m MVD at -8C. Experimental anti-icing results were compared with LEWICE, a NASA developed analytical heat transfer software. The average output temperature discrepancy between the suction and pressure sides of the airfoil were 39.5% and 11.1%, respectively. The correlation coefficient of the pressure-side output temperature and power density showed a positive correlation of 0.9516. The anti-icing configuration with the allocated power requirements was deemed unfeasible. This thesis then discusses the design process required to develop a de-icing ice protection system (ice is allowed to accrete to then be removed) for wind turbines and a design procedure was developed. Initially, ice accretion thickness gradients along the span of the rotor blade for light, medium and severe icing conditions were collected. Ice accretion rates along the span of the representative full-scale turbine blade in the severe icing condition ranged from 1.125 mm/min to 1.85 mm/min. Given the maximum power available for the de-icing system (100 kW), heating zones were determined along the span and the chord of the blade. The maximum available power density for each span-wise heater section was 0.385 W/cm2. The heating sequence started at the tip of the blade, to allow de-bonded ice to shed off along the span of the rotor blade due to centrifugal forces. Given the continuity of the accreted ice, heating a zone could de-bond the ice over that specific zone, but the ice formation could not detach from the blade as it would be cohesively connected to the ice over its adjacent inboard zone. The research determined the critical minimum ice thickness required to shed the accreted ice mass with a given amount of power availability by not only melting the ice interface over the zone, but also creating sufficient tensile forces to break the cohesive ice forces between two adjacent heating zones. The quantified minimum ice thickness to overcome ice cohesive forces were obtained for all identified icing conditions. The minimum ice thicknesses required for effective shedding at 26.7%, 44.4% and 62.2% of the span were 7.2mm, 5mm and 4mm, respectively. The digitized ice areas of these thicknesses were used to calculate the centrifugal force at each heater section. The experiment data was critical in the design of a time sequence controller that allows consecutive de-icing of heating zones along the span of the wind turbine blade with the allocated power.

Book Environmentally Benign Deicing Anti Icing Technology

Download or read book Environmentally Benign Deicing Anti Icing Technology written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under a Phase I SBIR program, METSS has demonstrated the technical feasibility of developing environmentally benign deicing/anti-icing fluids based on glucose, lactates, and their salts. Models developed by METSS to identify potential replacement materials for the current glycol-based systems governed the selection of these materials. These simple models take into account a number of physical, chemical, and structural attributes determined to be important to materials that exhibit good deicing/anti-icing behavior. Known structural attributes for biodegradability governed the selection of materials that would address environmental concerns. The formulations developed by METSS were subjected to tests derived from SAE AMS 1424. BOD and COD tests were performed to assess environmental impact. The results of the Phase I program clearly indicate the technical feasibility of developing direct replacement deicing/anti-icing fluids based on glucose and lactate systems that address environmental impact issues without compromising performance. Near term commercialization of the proposed systems is assured by the abundant supply of these low cost agricultural products, low processing costs, and a number of parties who have a vested interest in expanding markets for these materials. Further development of the proposed technologies should emphasize performance optimization, materials compatibility testing and formulation optimization efforts needed to support foil qualification testing against AMS 1424 and 1428 specifications.
