Abstract
THE PRESENT PAPER HAS THE PURPOSE OF ANALYZING THE CONDITIONS IN WHICH ICE ACCRETION IS POSSIBLE AND THE FORMATION OF ICE IN RELATION WITH THE AERODYNAMIC EFFECTS ON AIRFOILS. THE STANDARD AIRFOIL NACA0012, INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE ICING CONDITIONS WAS USED FOR THE SIMULATION. TWO POLAR GRAPHS WERE DESIGNED AND ANALYZED LATER ON WITH THE HELP OF THE FREEWARE SOFTWARE QBLADE. THE 3D PROFILE OF THE AIRFOILS WAS MADE USING SOLIDWORKS SOFTWARE IN WHICH THE DYNAMIC PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION CAN BE SEEN AND THE WAY IN WHICH IT INFLUENCES THE FLOW DISTRIBUTION ALONG THE SURFACE OF THE AIRFOILS.
