Abstract
An anti-/de-icing conjugate heat transfer method based on a ANSYS-CFX flow solver and FENSAP-ICE software is presented. The ANSYS-CFX flow solver is used as the flow solver module with the shear stress transport turbulence model. DROP3D is used as the droplet impingement module. ICE3D is used as the ice accretion and water film runback module. CHT3D/CFX is used for the thermal coupling of all modules. Before solving for the temperature distribution in a three-dimensional antiicing system geometry based on a piccolo tube with three jet rows, a test case consisting of a two-stream parallel gas-to-gas microheat exchanger will validate the CHT3D/CFX procedure. For the antiicing system in wet air mode, the temperature results at corresponding experimental locations are presented and compared to results from the literature.
