Numerical simulation results of fluid flow and collection efficiency of the Science Engineering Associates Inc. Multi-Element Probe (Multiwire) and Ice Crystal Detector (ICD) are presented. Fluid flow simulations were conducted using NASA's FUN3D while collection efficiency simulations were conducted using NASA's LEWICE3D software and GlennICE software. For both probes, 3D unsteady flow results were time averaged. Simulations were computed for freestream velocities ranging from 85 to 185 m/s and freestream total pressures of 44.8 and 93.1 kPa. Collection efficiency results were computed for four spherical particle diameter sizes of 5, 20, 50, and 100 µm. GlennICE collection efficiency results for the multiwire were compared with previously published collection efficiency values calculated using LEWICE3D. Numerical collection efficiency results for the Ice Crystal Detector are presented for the first time.
