The analytical model described by Korkan et al. (1982) for predicting the performance degradation of propellers in a natural icing encounter is used to determine the feasibility of predicting helicopter performance degradation in hover during natural icing. The flight condition selected for analysis involves an altitude of 3000 ft and a free-air temperature of 1 F. The values of degradation yielded by the model for rime ice accretion are representative of those experienced in actual flight.
