A comprehensive Environmental Icing Simulation System developed by the Naval Air Propulsion Center (NAPC) is discussed. The system accommodates the testing of ducted and free stream mounted engines and free stream mounted engine inlets. The Navy specification icing test procedures, success criteria and rationale for the requirements are discussed. Also discussed are the capabilities of the NAPC icing facilities in terms of critical icing cloud parameters such as liquid water content, mean effective droplet diameter, humidity and inlet air temperature. How the icing environment is established, calibrated prior to testing, and verified during testing are covered. NAPC test experience in the Navy qualification programs for the T406, T700, and F404, as well as demonstration and development test programs performed with the TOMAHAWK Cruise Missile inlet and the F-14A aircraft inlet duct are discussed.
