Feasibility of Using Lasers and Infrared Heaters as UNREP Icing Countermeasures
Report summarizes the results of a study directed toward determining the feasibility of applying laser technology to UNREP deicing, and infrared heating technology to UNREP anti-icing and deicing. The shipboard applicability of lasers for use as an UNREP deicing tool was determined to be technically...
