| description | Abstract Plasma ice shape regulation is a technology which uses plasma actuator to regulate the continuous ice into safer intermittent ice by its significant thermal effect with limited energy. Whether plasma ice shape regulation could reduce flight risk is a new problem under the wing with continuous ice. The 3D printed ice shapes were arranged on the leading edge of the wing based on NACA0012 airfoil, aiming to simulate the configuration after ice shape regulation. And the aerodynamic parameters were obtained by wind tunnel experiments. The experimental results showed that the ratio of signal regulation ice width $$d$$ d to chord length of the wing $$b_{A}$$ b A determined the aerodynamic characteristics, and the aerodynamic characteristics changed better compared with configuration of the continuous ice. However, the flight risk of the wing under given regulation ratio is unknown. Based on the straight and swept wing after regulating, the flight safety boundaries were simulated by the reachable set method. Further, a method of quantitative assessment of flight risk is proposed. Quantitative values of risk were calculated. The results show that the flight risk all decreases from level 2 to level 4 compared with configuration of the continuous ice when $$d/b_{A}$$ d / b A equals 0.15 under conditions of swept and straight wing. |
