Simulated glaze ice accretion effects on a flowfield are presently studied for the case of a 3D semispan wing with NACA 0012 airfoil section on a rectangular untwisted planform. The model was tested at both zero-sweep and 30-deg sweep setting with four-beam/two-color LDV flowfield mapping. The comparison of LDV-measure velocity profiles with 3D Navier-Stokes predictions revealed correct trends, but with several differences that are attributable to the turbulence models and grid resolution used in the computations.
