What is it about?
Modeling of a turbofan engine with a thermodynamic cycle code, and an Euler based compressor flow analysis code, to identify key icing parameters that are the precursors to ice accretion in a turbofan engine.

Why is it important?
Wet bulb temperature at the location where there is ice accretion within the low pressure compressor of a turbofan engine.
Perspectives
The analysis of the engine test data taken in the PSL has resulted in being able to quantify key parameters associated with ice accretion in turbofan engines.
