Water Spray and High Humidity Endurance Test Methods for AMS1424 and AMS1428 Aircraft Deicing/Anti-Icing Fluids
AS5901D
This document establishes the minimum requirements for an environmental test chamber, and test procedures to carry out anti-icing performance tests according to the current materials specification for aircraft deicing/anti-icing fluids. The primary purpose for such a test method is to determine the anti-icing endurance under controlled laboratory conditions of AMS1424 Type I and AMS1428 Type II, III, and IV fluids.
Rationale:
This document brings minor modifications of wording and some editorial changes. Throughout the document, the icing rate expression has been standardized. In 4.2.1.1, a reference to a water spray nozzle model has been added. In 4.3, missing information about test panels have been added; thickness, type of alloy, and dimension size tolerance. Figures 1 and 4 have been updated and resized at scale.
