This manual deals with the thermal anti-icing of aircraft wing and tail surfaces which are protected by double-skin heaters. After a brief introduction, reference material is presented for pressure drop of duct components, water impingement on airfoils, and coefficients of heat and mass transfer by convection. The last parts of the manual are devoted to mass and heat balances on airfoils and to a design procedure presented from the viewpoint of performance analysis.
