Abstract

One of the ice protection systems for flights above medium altitudes is the electromagnetic explusive deicing system(EEDS). EEDS is composed of a coil which is structurally deformed by electromagnetic repulsion of electric current supplied by external circuit, a complex multiphysics phenomenon requiring electromagnetic, structural, and circuit analysis simultaneously. In this paper, we suggest electromagnetic(EM)-structural deformation-circuit coupled lumped parameter system for the analysis of EEDS. The results of the numerical analysis using the coupled lumped parameter system is compared with the results of measuring experiment using the EEDS prototype, which showed high concordance in current, electromagnetic force, and displacement. The coupled lumped parameter system enables bi-directional analysis which takes into account the interdependence between the different systems. Furthermore, it can significantly reduce the computational cost, which enables complex performance evaluation on various design variables and saves time and cost in the initial design steps.
