The Severity Of De-Icing In Airports
In winter, the snow can be a hassle but the ice is what can be more challenging. Imagine how challenging it can be for an airport when dealing with the
ice on not only the tarmacs but the planes as well. Airports have been using the same de–icing method for a while now, but it is not the most efficient
way out there, nor is it the cheapest. There are a few reasons why aircrafts must be de–iced before take off in order to ensure that the aircraft is safe to
fly. The current solution to de–ice an aircraft is inefficient and rather expensive, while there is a much better way to complete the process. Who
wouldn't want their airport to run smoother and have flights in and out quicker? "De–Icing an aeroplane is tedious. Just ask any passenger stuck... Show

It is one of the top entry points to North America, and with that being said, one would assume they will need to be efficient, cost effective, and fast in
almost everything that they do; which they are. Right down to the small detail that often goes unnoticed of de–icing an aircraft. At JFK they have
bought into a new system, a much better system. This system uses infrared technology to heat the airplane before takeoff, "Designed and built by
Radiant Aviation Services, a US–based wholly–owned subsidiary of the Canadian company Radiant Energy Corporation, the patented InfraTek system
relies almost entirely on IR, which lies just to the right of the visible spectrum, to deice aircraft" (In text citation – author year). The process is quite
simple, taxi the airplane to what seems to be a big open hanger, and sit there for a little bit until they are cleared for takeoff and the ice has melted.
The program has had times noted of ranging between 28 minutes to 43 minutes for a full block, which is the time from brakes on the brake off
(boarding to takeoff). Comparing that to the hour or hour and a half it takes to de–ice a plane in the conventional way, this seems like a better system
already just based on the amount of time it takes to do the job. Toronto Pearson has rivalled that by building a massive de–icing facility where they can
de–ice 11 planes at once, and have another 11

Why Winter Driving Is Bad
As all long–time residents know, Michigan winters can be brutal. However, even during a "normal" winter, you can expect average temperatures that
are below freezing for three months out of the year and snowfall totals ranging between 44 inches and 55 inches. Keeping your pavement clear
throughout the winter typically involves frequent applications of salt or chemical deicers as well as repeated snowplowing. Between the freeze/thaw
cycle, the potential damage from snowplows and the corrosive actions of deicing materials, your asphalt pavement can take a beating. If you want to
minimize the damage that winter can cause, you should make sure that you have cracks repaired before the arrival of cold weather.

They are known as rime and clear ice, and a mixture of the two is not uncommon. For rime ice to form, an aircraft needs to fly through an area of tiny
super–cooled liquid drops. This super–cooled liquid is actually suspended in the cloud cover at temperatures already below freezing. Once the aircraft
surface plows through this moisture, the drops are disrupted immediately adhere to and freeze before spreading out over the entire surface. This forms
a rough and cloudy–white layer of ice known as rime. Even though the rime surface is rough and creates an airflow disturbance, it is lighter and easier
to remove by deicing equipment than clear ice. For clear ice to form, larger sized super–cooled drops would need to be encountered. These larger
droplets spread out over the surface and airfoils before freezing. This allows for the build–up of a clear, hard and slick layer of ice on the surface
(Ahrens, 2009).
There are four basic condition levels of icing. A slight trace may be unnoticeable, where a light accumulation might only be an issue during a very long
flight through conditions and periodic use of anti–icing equipment may be needed to rid any accumulation. A moderate build up could be hazardous to
only short exposure and anti–icing equipment and route deviation would be absolutely required. Severe conditions could not be controlled by icing

Aviation Icing Essay
Abstract
During this research paper we will be looking into the definition of flight into known icing as it's described by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) with special emphasis on the word known or forecasted icing as a legal requirement for both pilots and aircraft. We will look at aircraft systems
designed for such operations and we will be analyzing the misunderstanding that many pilots have about this issue. One of the biggest misconceptions
is that an aircraft equipped with deicing equipment makes it rated for known icing conditions. We will briefly look at the regulations on aircraft
certifications and look at the procedures to make an aircraft certified for icing conditions and some of the new technologies that make it easier to
operate in this environment. With all the advancements it could easily be said that the chances of an accident ever happening due to flight into ice is
almost nonexistent. With an accident review we will see that all aircraft suffer from the same fatal flaw as batman's utility belt, the systems only work
if the pilot knows and utilizes them. In conclusion we will look at the best practices a pilot can employ to improve flight safety and reduce the risks
involved.

Flaked Beach Salt
Flaked sea salt: Good for bringing a complex flavor to steamed vegetables or shellfish. Crushing this type of salt between the fingers and letting it fall
on your food can create a briny taste on it. England's Essex coast is where the most popular brand, Maldon, is harvested. The texture of this salt is soft,
sheer and it has pyramid–like shapes. To buy this type of salt, you can search specialty–food stores and also the internet. Fleur de Sel: This is a
special–occasion table salt that is used for many dinners. It's a type of salt that is good for using to sprinkle on freshly sliced tomato, melon, etc.
Fleur de Sel salt originated in coastal salt ponds in France. Fleur de Sel salt is hand harvested, conditions have to be just right (lots of sun and wind)
for it to "bloom" like a flower on the surface of the water. Fleur de Sel is a type of salt that melts slowly inside the mouth. Its pleasantful flavors
linger on the tongue when it is eaten. To buy this salt, you can look in specialty–food stores and you can also shop online for it. Expect to pay about
$11–$44 depending on how many ounces you buy.

Hai Viet Vo investigated, "...the thermal conductivity of asphalt pavement with an addition of graphite powder as a conductive filler. It was concluded
that the time for snow–melting process could be shortened by increasing the amount of graphite content; about half amount of the time could be
reduced with a 20 percent of graphite added"(Park & Vo, 2017). This shows that there is not yet an exact recipe for the most effective conductive
concrete yet. Even now different materials are being tested in the mix to determine the most effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly product.
It would be prudent to conclude that conductive concrete that is economically feasible, and unharmful to the environment could easily be implemented
into the construction of small–scale sidewalks, and with that, could be used in larger projects such as highways.
Controversies and Debates On the other hand, there are concerns that come with conductive concrete. Those concerns are about the economic
feasibility and environmental impact of the application of conductive concrete. When it comes to environmental impact, conductive concrete would
only be positive. It eliminates the need for traditional methods of deicing, such as plowing, natural melting, traffic movement and chemical treatment.
The traditional methods also have a negative impact on their surroundings, "Applying chemical

Flight 751 Research Papers
Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) Flight 751 landed at Stockholm/Arlanda Airport I on 26 December, 1991, at 2209 hours. Little did they know,
within 24 hours that would be the last time it would land at an airport. The plane landed on a slush covered filled after it had snowed at the airport.
Upon landing, the wings still had roughly 2,550 kilograms of fuel left in each of them. There the plane sat at a gate and at around 0200 hours on 27
December, 1991, a flight technician had finished inspecting the airplane and had noted that ice had formed on upper portion of the wings.
By morning it was noted by a technician at 0730 hours that frost was found on the underside of the wing, but after inspection of the upper wing he
could not see any ice formed on it. It would later be found out that there was indeed ice on it, but not a kind that is completely visible, and the ice
that was found on the wing was in fact clear ice. The reason this ice likely formed on the wing was due to fuel being left in the wings overnight where
the temperature within it was –20В° C. Alongside that it had snowed overnight while the plane sat, which made ice and slush build up on the wings.
Which amounted to nearly 10 inches of slush on top of the wings, in the morning.

Increase Of Regulation For Winter Road Maintenance
Increase in Regulation for Winter Road Maintenance Everyone has dealt with an experience where they are driving down a "cleaned" road, and all
of a sudden, they hit an ice patch. The winter road crews have been over the roads, but nevertheless, the road is not safe. The lane will be clean.
Then, a block later, it will be covered in ice. In the city of Nampa, this situation tends to be encountered more than necessary. When someone travels
from Canyon County to Ada County, there is a clear distinction between the levels of care. Roads in Boise are usually better taken care of compared to
the morning traffic in Nampa. The Treasure Valley needs to increaseroad maintenance in the winter creating more mandates for care and researching
for a better understanding and process for salting and clean up. For Idaho, statistics show the negative repercussions and dangers of weather–related
accidents. One study was completed by the United States Department of Transportation showing how weather relates to car accident statistics (U.S.
Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration). In the United States yearly, about 22% of crashes and 16% of fatalities were based
off weather related incidents such as slick roads and bad conditions (U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration). Over a ten
year study, 33% of weather related accidents were based off of snow, sleet, and ice conditions (U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway

Applying A Thin Bonded Concrete Overlay
individual repairs, consider using a thin–bonded concrete overlay. Fig –26: Popouts, Scaling and Spalling.
2.11 SCALING
Scaling is the general loss of surface mortar exposed to freezing and thawing. The aggregate is usually clearly exposed and often stands out from the
concrete.
2.11.1 Causes
1.Scaling is primarily a physical action caused by hydraulic pressure from water freezing within the concrete and not usually caused by chemical
corrosive action.
2. When pressure exceeds the tensile strength of concrete, scaling can result if entrained–air voids are not present to act as internal pressure relief valves.
3. Scaling is also caused due to the use of deicing solutions. Fig –27: Scaling of Concrete Surface
2.11.2 Remedies
Begin by thoroughly removing any loose material to create a relatively smooth surface. Contact the repair material manufacturer for guidance. Most
manufacturers suggest surface preparation should include repairing shallow delaminations, surface, scaling, and aggregate popouts. This may require
grinding the resulting rough surface. The committee recommends trying to achieve a concrete surface profile in the range of 3 to 5 as described in the
International Concrete Repairs Institute 's Document 03732.

The Effect Of Salt For Deicing
Living in a place that snows a lot in the winter, after snowing, the cold temperature created ice on the roads and sidewalks. The ice makes the road
slippery and it can be very dangerous for people when they are both driving and walking. The ice must be cleaned as fast as possible to make the road
passable and to prevent accidents. This is where de–icing chemicals come to work. Transport and road management governments would send trucks go
around the roads and spread a mixture of salt and sand so that the ice would melt quickly than usual. People would also use deicers for the same
reasons at their home and their neighborhoods. In 2008, U.S. consumption of salt for deicing was 22.6 Mt, which was about 9% more than that of
2007. It required more rock salt usage because of the greater winter precipitation in late 2008. The United States produced more salts than any other
countries in the world until the year of 2005, when China surpassed the United States to become the leading producing nation (Kostick, 2010).
Chemicals using for deicing have physical and chemical properties; their melting capacities have great differences due to their properties. Some
common de–icing chemicals are sodium chloride and calcium chloride; however, they are sometime replaced by sodium bicarbonate, magnesium
chloride considering the environmental effects on plants and animals. "Concerns about the extent and severity of environmental impacts of road

she was still the same person that he'd missed and dreamed of spending his life with, but as he'd grown to a man from a boy, she'd transformed from
a girl into a woman, and that brooked changes in any person. However, rather than it, causing a feeling of dejection, or brining on a sense of anger at

Deicer Lab Essay
Abstract Through three different experiments we were to find the quality of NaCl as a deicer. These experiments included testing the freezing point
depression of NaCl in solution at two different concentrations, testing for the H of an aqueous NaCl solution, and combining NaCl with MgCl2 in an
aqueous solution to test for freezing point depression. Through these various experiments we found NaCl to be the best deicer for our region due to its
proficient freezing point depression and its cost efficiency.
Introduction
As scientists we were given the task to find the overall effectiveness of NaCl as a deicer. In choosing the best deicer we are comparing NaCl to KCl,
MgCl2, and CaCl2. We believed NaCl to be the best deicer as it... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Analysis Day One
Through our data acquisition on day one our predicted values for the change in temperature of our NaCl solution in water was slightly off. This was
most likely due to recording the freezing temperature sometime after the precise moment of the solution freezing. However, we predicted that as we
doubled our concentration of NaCl in solution the freezing point depression would also double which is consistent with our results. Through our day
one experiments we were able to better understand the ability of NaCl as a deicer by understanding how the freezing point depression changes based on
concentration. We could further test these results by testing with different concentrations of NaCl.

It also issued 18 airworthiness directives for all pilots operating small commuter aircraft, instructing them on how to recognize and respond to
dangerous icing conditions. (Krock, 2004, 4). As a step to resolve icing accident investigations the FAA has issued airworthiness directives for aviation
operators such as: Monitoring ice build–up, and getting out of icing conditions if the buildup is unusually high, on anti–icing equipment sooner rather
than later, avoid abrupt and excessive maneuvering that may exacerbate control difficulties, do not extend flaps when holding in icing conditions
(which can reduce angle of attack), If flaps are extended, do not retract until the airframe is clear of ice, and report icing conditions to ATC. (Holzapfel,
2000, 9). Aircraft icing is closely studied in wind tunnels, although it is very difficult for them to simulate different icing conditions. Such icing
research is conducted at John H. Glenn Research Center using the Icing Research Tunnel, the largest refrigerated icing tunnel in the world, and the

Freeze And Thaw In Concrete
The Effects of Freeze and Thaw in Concrete
Most people think concrete is an impenetrable solid. But in actually, concrete is a porous material with many capillaries and voids throughout the
surface. Although concrete is strong in compressive strength, it is weak in tensile stength and elasticity. Concrete can tolerate heavy loads, but it is
susceptible to damage which causes it to break apart over time.
One damaging effect is freezing water. When water melts, it absorbs into the pores and capillaries. As the water freezes and expands, it weakens the
strength of the concrete. This causes concrete scaling, delamination, and cracking.
The freeze and thaw cycle isn't restricted to just northern climates. It also occurs in warmer climates where the temperature drops below freezing at
night, and rises above freezing during the day. Sometimes deicing chemicals are applied to the surface to temporary lower the melting point of ice by ...

This will help prevent water absorption as well as expansion.
Another popular solution is replacing the soil with more porous alternatives, such as sand and gravel. To divert water away from the foundation, you
can also dig a subterranean reservoir on the property.
How the Freeze and Thaw Cycle Damages Foundations
Since the freeze and thaw cycle damages concrete surfaces, it can also cause shifts and cracks beneath the home's foundation. Soil within a high water
table are particularly problematic since they have poor drainage around the property.
Although you can't prevent the freeze and thaw cycle, you can protect your foundation. At MFS Basement and Foundation Repair, we implement water

Aircraft Icing And Its Effects On All Aircraft
Abstract The following is an in–depth look on aircraft icing and the harsh effects it has on all aircraft. Mother Nature has been around far longer than
any of us. Weather is not going anywhere anytime soon and it is our responsibility no matter what our position in the aviation community to
understand and deal with these conditions properly. Aircraft icing is not completely preventable but with the proper techniques, tools and
knowledge can be dealt with safely. Aviation in general is far to precious and should not be denied by any weather condition. Within this reading I
hope one can understand and have a thorough understand of exactly what icing is and how both the aircraft and aircrew can help to prevent a
serious mishap form occurring. Title: Subtitle Leonardo da Vinci once said "When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with
your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return. Aviation today is often thought of as only a mode of

Canaan Valley Wetland
Significant change has been detected in the Canaan Valley area with high accuracies. There was a serious wetland loss from 56.17% in 1993 to

only 8814.606 acres by 2002, which was about half of wetland in 1993. The dominant wetland type was still forested/shrub wetland. Emergent
wetland occupied a small amount with 16.6% of total wetland area. The Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge kept the main wetland. Both dry

A lot of human actions lead to this wetland change such as developing urban area, tilling for crop production, and building a transportation system.
It's clear to see that the major wetland area remained is in the east part of Tucker County, which is far away from the cities and roads network
(Figure 5.1). Urbanization is a major cause of wetland loss. With increased population, more and more areas need to be extended for human
activities. For many years, the value of wetland was underestimated. Roads and bridges are frequently constructed across wetlands since people
thought wetlands have low land value. It is often considered to be more cost effective to build roads or bridges across wetlands than around them.

A forced landing was subsequently made in a field, where the airplane collided with a utility pole and landed in a ditch. An examination of the engine
revealed no evidence of mechanical failure or malfunction. An icing probability chart revealed that the reported weather conditions in the area were
favorable for the formation of moderate carburetor icing at cruise power. The Cessna 172M owner's manual notes that a gradual loss in rpm and
eventual engine roughness may result from the formation of carburetor ice and prescribes the use of carburetor heat to clear the ice. (Civil Aviation

The Effects Of Homeschooling On Children And Public Schools
Introduction: Homeschooling is becoming much more common now than it was years ago. Parents are now preferring to homeschool their children
over public school due to many reasons such as religion, safety, academic quality travel, family togetherness, separation of government and school,
mastery over grades, expenses, and focusing on learning plans made for the student. Public schools are institutions, which are funded by tax revenues
from the government. Schools have boundaries to then figure out which students will attend a certain school to avoid overcrowding. The schools
curriculum is drawn up by the state and they follow a standardized testing result and other measurements, which gives the state information of how the
school is performing. According to Isabel Shaw, there are an abundance of pros and cons of deicing to homeschool your children. Some key points

For many people, winter is the most delightful season of all. For your asphalt parking lot, however, winter can be the cruelest season that it will face. It

Understanding how winter weather can affect your asphalt pavement can help you minimize winter's impact.
Freezing Temperatures
One of the worst things for your asphalt pavement is the repeated cycles of freezing and thawing that can occur during the winter. Asphalt contracts and
expands as temperatures fluctuate, and as long as no water penetration occurs, your pavement should survive the winter in good shape. However, if

Inexperienced ones, however, can set the blade too low, resulting in gouges in the pavement.
Results: In addition to marring the pavement's appearance, tearing out chunks of asphalt can give water another way to penetrate beneath the pavement

Chemicals Used to Melt Ice
Chemical deicers and salt can take a heavy toll on asphalt that is already beginning to deteriorate as well as asphalt pavement that is not protected by
sealcoating. Traditional rock salt usually will not be effective at temperatures below 15 degrees, increasing the chances of water penetration when the
melted ice refreezes and thaws again.

During this research paper we will be looking into the definition of flight into known icing as it's described by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) with special emphasis on the word known or forecasted icing as a legal requirement for both pilots and aircraft. We will look at aircraft systems
designed for such operations and we will be analyzing the misunderstanding that many pilots have about this issue. One of the biggest misconceptions
is that an aircraft equipped with deicing equipment makes it rated for known icing conditions. We will briefly look at the regulations on aircraft
certifications and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
We will be focusing more on airborne anti–icing as part of Aircrafts rating for flight and the known icing conditions as defined by the FAA. While
ground removal of ice is not the focus FAR 135.227 and FAR 91.527 state.
"No pilot may take off an aircraft that has frost, ice, or snow adhering to any rotor blade, propeller, windshield, stabilizing or control surface; to a
power plant installation; or to an airspeed, altimeter, rate of climb, flight attitude instrument system, or wing, except that takeoffs may be made with
frost under the wing in the area of the fuel tanks if authorized by the FAA." (FAR, 2016)
There are always exceptions to this rule including meeting training requirements of FAR 135.341 and meeting additional criteria outlined in FAR
135.227.
There are several deferent types of ground de–icing including manual removal and the use of chemicals or solutions (some heated) to remove ice and
snow or preventing ice buildup on the aircraft during the takeoff phase of flight. This is only to protect the aircraft until the aircrafts own anti–icing
equipment can become effective. Some good sources for ground deicing processes and procedures can be found in Aeronautics Information Manual
(AIM) under section 7–5–14. As well as the FAA's Standardized International Aircraft Ground Deice Program (SIAGDP) (2010).

The Crash Of The United States
On December 13th, 1982 one of the most memorable plane accidents happened on Fourteenth Street bridge which happens to cross over the Potomac
River. On a cold and snowy day just after 4 o'clock a 737 Boeing airplane crashed into the river near Washington D.C. The flight was supposed to
return to Ft. Lauderdale, however, snow in Washington briefly closed the airport. When the airport reopened, the plane was de–iced, but still had
difficulties once it got into the air due to the ice. Seventy–four passengers and five crew members were on the plane and unfortunately seventy–three of
them died. When the plane crashes, it struck multiple vehicles and then hit a section of the bridge. On the bridge four people were killed and another
four people were injured. The main reason so many perished were due to the extreme cold of the water, the snow storm conditions and the heavy traffic,
which prevented firefighters from reaching the site of the crash, and the failures of Air Florida's flight crew. The water temperature in the Potomac at
the time was around thirty–four degrees Fahrenheit. According to Amanda Ripley's "The Unthinkable", "humans have a low tolerance for extreme
temperatures and cannot spend long periods of time in those ranges. After a certain amount of time heart rates start to lower, blood vessels constrict
which causes pain. Blood would begin to abandon extremities to frostbite, choosing to save your heart instead". All three of these conditions lead to a

This accident could have been avoided if proper procedure was followed in deicing.
The NTSB investigation concluded that the combination of the crew's use of thrust reverse on the ground for push back, and their failure to active the
engine anti–ice system caused the crash. By failing to activate the engine anti–ice system, large amounts of snow and ice that were sucked into the
engines during reverse thrust were allowed to remain there. Ice built up on the compressor inlet pressure probe, which measures engine power. As a
result instrument indications in the cockpit showed an Engine Pressure Ratio of 2.04, while the power plants were in reality only producing 1.70
EPR, or about 70% of available power. The combination of the ice covered wings and low power caused an immediate stall on takeoff killing 74
people. (Kilroy, 9).
In Americans Eagle Flight 4184 October 31, 1994, heavy air traffic and poor weather postponed the arrival of this flight at Chicago's O'Hare
International Airport, where it was to have landed en route from Indianapolis, Indiana.
The ATR–72, a twin–engine turboprop carrying 68 people, entered a holding pattern 65 miles southeast of O'Hare, which it maintained for over an
hour in freezing rain. As the plane circled, a ridge of ice formed on the upper surface of its wings, eventually causing the aircraft's autopilot to

Comparing 'The Interlopers And What Of This Goldfish'
In the stories "The Interlopers" and "What of this Goldfish, Would you wish?", they show that it is important to accept others that are different from
yourself by proving that you need to know someone before you judge them and comprehend someone's culture and background and who they are in
order to accept them. In each story, it is shown that it is very important to get all the information before you can accept someone, even when they're
from another country or even right down the street from you. Collectively, both stories show sacrifice of ignorance and the gain of knowledge is a
huge part of acceptance. In the story "The Interlopers", we find two men, Ulrich von Gradwitz and Georg Znaeym, who have held a grudge against one
another over a plot of land and hated each other for years because the other intevened with the land they wanted. The men didn't know much about the...

The men from "The Interlopers" didnt learn about one another before slapping the name of nemisis on them, they just took the tiny obsticle that they
had and the problem is what they hated, not eachother."The feud might, perhaps, have died down or been compromised if the personal ill–will of the
two men had not stood in the way;", meaning if the men had just not been so shut in and selfish, they could have compromised something with the
land, lived and could have ended up friends. In "What of this Goldfish, Would you wish?" Yoni didnt let ignorance prevent him from getting
information he wanted, but since Sergei hated people knocking on his door, he didnt bother to learn the language. He didn't dislike Yoni; he didn't
even know the kid, but he didnt know what he was doing in his house, his ignorance helped him get to the point of killing Yoni. If he just knew what
he said and bothered to learn and practice herbrew, he wouldn't have been in such a compromisable

The Severity Of De-Icing In Airports

  • 1. The Severity Of De-Icing In Airports In winter, the snow can be a hassle but the ice is what can be more challenging. Imagine how challenging it can be for an airport when dealing with the ice on not only the tarmacs but the planes as well. Airports have been using the same de–icing method for a while now, but it is not the most efficient way out there, nor is it the cheapest. There are a few reasons why aircrafts must be de–iced before take off in order to ensure that the aircraft is safe to fly. The current solution to de–ice an aircraft is inefficient and rather expensive, while there is a much better way to complete the process. Who wouldn't want their airport to run smoother and have flights in and out quicker? "De–Icing an aeroplane is tedious. Just ask any passenger stuck... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It is one of the top entry points to North America, and with that being said, one would assume they will need to be efficient, cost effective, and fast in almost everything that they do; which they are. Right down to the small detail that often goes unnoticed of de–icing an aircraft. At JFK they have bought into a new system, a much better system. This system uses infrared technology to heat the airplane before takeoff, "Designed and built by Radiant Aviation Services, a US–based wholly–owned subsidiary of the Canadian company Radiant Energy Corporation, the patented InfraTek system relies almost entirely on IR, which lies just to the right of the visible spectrum, to deice aircraft" (In text citation – author year). The process is quite simple, taxi the airplane to what seems to be a big open hanger, and sit there for a little bit until they are cleared for takeoff and the ice has melted. The program has had times noted of ranging between 28 minutes to 43 minutes for a full block, which is the time from brakes on the brake off (boarding to takeoff). Comparing that to the hour or hour and a half it takes to de–ice a plane in the conventional way, this seems like a better system already just based on the amount of time it takes to do the job. Toronto Pearson has rivalled that by building a massive de–icing facility where they can de–ice 11 planes at once, and have another 11 ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Creep will not be a significant issue if the loads on the structure are kept below appropriate working stress levels d) Resistance to Environmental Factors Composites display excellent resistance to the corrosive effects of: Freeze–thaw: because composites are not attacked by galvanic corrosion and have low water absorption, they resist the destructive expansion of freezing water. Weathering and Ultra–Violet Light: FRP composite structures designed for weather exposure are normally fabricated with a surface layer containing a pigmented gel coat or have an ultraviolet (UV) inhibitor included as an additive to the composite matrix. Both methods provide protection to the underlying material by screening out UV rays and minim Chemicals and Temperature: Composites do not rust or corrode and can be formulated to provide long–term resistance to nearly every chemical and temperature environment. Of particular benefit, is composites ability to successfully withstand the normally destructive effects of de–icing salts and/or saltwater spray of the ocean?

  • 5. Why Winter Driving Is Bad As all long–time residents know, Michigan winters can be brutal. However, even during a "normal" winter, you can expect average temperatures that are below freezing for three months out of the year and snowfall totals ranging between 44 inches and 55 inches. Keeping your pavement clear throughout the winter typically involves frequent applications of salt or chemical deicers as well as repeated snowplowing. Between the freeze/thaw cycle, the potential damage from snowplows and the corrosive actions of deicing materials, your asphalt pavement can take a beating. If you want to minimize the damage that winter can cause, you should make sure that you have cracks repaired before the arrival of cold weather. Why Crack Filling Is Important Although ...

  • 6. Fog In North America 1). Introduction Fog is one of the dangerous weather, which reduces visibility for drivers, and can cause accidents or even death. In North America, fog occurs sometimes, but in some areas, it occurs almost every day. There are five places where fog occurs almost every day. The names of those places are Grand Banks (Newfoundland), Point Reyes (California), Cape Disappointment (Washington), and San Francisco (California), Mistake Island (Maine), (Higgins 2015). To reduce vehicular accidents in thick fog, every driver should reduce speed, check the weather forecast before driving, and also public awareness in important. 1.1 Definition of Fog According to the dictionary, fog is defined as "a cloudlike mass or layer of minute water droplets or...

This type of fog can be seen on Pacific Coast during summer because the ground water in this coast is very cold then the offshore (Ahrens, Samson 98). 3)Upslope Fog: When mountains, plains, and slopes have an upward breeze, it causes upslope fog. This fog can occur on the eastern side of the Rockies during the winter and spring (Ahrens, Samson 99). 4)Evaporation Fog: "Evaporation fog forms as a result of the mixing of two unsaturated air masses." The steam fog means when the colder air passes over the warm air. It is kind of evaporation fog ("Net Industries"). 2). Role Description It is a fact that "The North Pacific High is semi–permanent." It's also an anticyclone located in the pacific in the northeastern portion. Its geographical location is northeast of Hawaii and west of California. California has a very dry summer and fall because of it. It's also responsible for a wet winter and spring. Hawaii also sees year round trade winds for this reason ("Wikipedia").

  • 7. Essay on Aircraft Icing Abstract Aircraft icing is a common and major hazard to the aviation industry. Depending on conditions, icing may have very little or major impact to aircraft performance. The types of icing that form on and affect aircraft, the variables in how each type of icing is formed and the categories of severity will be discussed. Numerous methods of prevention and treatment exist and all pilots should be well versed in flight rules and regulations concerning avoidance and response to icing situations. Aircraft Icing Aircraft icing is nothing but trouble and a significant hazard to the aviation community. With the right upper level conditions, our winter season allows icing to occur when least expected and most pilots know very little ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... They are known as rime and clear ice, and a mixture of the two is not uncommon. For rime ice to form, an aircraft needs to fly through an area of tiny super–cooled liquid drops. This super–cooled liquid is actually suspended in the cloud cover at temperatures already below freezing. Once the aircraft surface plows through this moisture, the drops are disrupted immediately adhere to and freeze before spreading out over the entire surface. This forms a rough and cloudy–white layer of ice known as rime. Even though the rime surface is rough and creates an airflow disturbance, it is lighter and easier to remove by deicing equipment than clear ice. For clear ice to form, larger sized super–cooled drops would need to be encountered. These larger droplets spread out over the surface and airfoils before freezing. This allows for the build–up of a clear, hard and slick layer of ice on the surface (Ahrens, 2009). There are four basic condition levels of icing. A slight trace may be unnoticeable, where a light accumulation might only be an issue during a very long flight through conditions and periodic use of anti–icing equipment may be needed to rid any accumulation. A moderate build up could be hazardous to only short exposure and anti–icing equipment and route deviation would be absolutely required. Severe conditions could not be controlled by icing removing systems and would be the most hazardous and would probably require immediate emergency ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Aviation Icing Essay Abstract During this research paper we will be looking into the definition of flight into known icing as it's described by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) with special emphasis on the word known or forecasted icing as a legal requirement for both pilots and aircraft. We will look at aircraft systems designed for such operations and we will be analyzing the misunderstanding that many pilots have about this issue. One of the biggest misconceptions is that an aircraft equipped with deicing equipment makes it rated for known icing conditions. We will briefly look at the regulations on aircraft certifications and look at the procedures to make an aircraft certified for icing conditions and some of the new technologies that make it easier to operate in this environment.

It was concluded that the time for snow–melting process could be shortened by increasing the amount of graphite content; about half amount of the time could be reduced with a 20 percent of graphite added"(Park & Vo, 2017). This shows that there is not yet an exact recipe for the most effective conductive concrete yet. Even now different materials are being tested in the mix to determine the most effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly product. It would be prudent to conclude that conductive concrete that is economically feasible, and unharmful to the environment could easily be implemented into the construction of small–scale sidewalks, and with that, could be used in larger projects such as highways. Controversies and Debates On the other hand, there are concerns that come with conductive concrete. Those concerns are about the economic feasibility and environmental impact of the application of conductive concrete.

Little did they know, within 24 hours that would be the last time it would land at an airport. The plane landed on a slush covered filled after it had snowed at the airport. Upon landing, the wings still had roughly 2,550 kilograms of fuel left in each of them. There the plane sat at a gate and at around 0200 hours on 27 December, 1991, a flight technician had finished inspecting the airplane and had noted that ice had formed on upper portion of the wings. By morning it was noted by a technician at 0730 hours that frost was found on the underside of the wing, but after inspection of the upper wing he could not see any ice formed on it. It would later be found out that there was indeed ice on it, but not a kind that is completely visible, and the ice that was found on the wing was in fact clear ice. The reason this ice likely formed on the wing was due to fuel being left in the wings overnight where the temperature within it was –20В° C. Alongside that it had snowed overnight while the plane sat, which made ice and slush build up on the wings. Which amounted to nearly 10 inches of slush on top of the wings, in the morning.

Fig –26: Popouts, Scaling and Spalling. 2.11 SCALING Scaling is the general loss of surface mortar exposed to freezing and thawing. The aggregate is usually clearly exposed and often stands out from the concrete. 2.11.1 Causes 1.Scaling is primarily a physical action caused by hydraulic pressure from water freezing within the concrete and not usually caused by chemical corrosive action. 2. When pressure exceeds the tensile strength of concrete, scaling can result if entrained–air voids are not present to act as internal pressure relief valves. 3. Scaling is also caused due to the use of deicing solutions. Fig –27: Scaling of Concrete Surface 2.11.2 Remedies Begin by thoroughly removing any loose material to create a relatively smooth surface. Contact the repair material manufacturer for guidance. Most manufacturers suggest surface preparation should include repairing shallow delaminations, surface, scaling, and aggregate popouts.

  • 15. The Effect Of Salt For Deicing Living in a place that snows a lot in the winter, after snowing, the cold temperature created ice on the roads and sidewalks. The ice makes the road slippery and it can be very dangerous for people when they are both driving and walking. The ice must be cleaned as fast as possible to make the road passable and to prevent accidents. This is where de–icing chemicals come to work. Transport and road management governments would send trucks go around the roads and spread a mixture of salt and sand so that the ice would melt quickly than usual. People would also use deicers for the same reasons at their home and their neighborhoods. In 2008, U.S. consumption of salt for deicing was 22.6 Mt, which was about 9% more than that of 2007. It required more rock salt usage because of the greater winter precipitation in late 2008. The United States produced more salts than any other countries in the world until the year of 2005, when China surpassed the United States to become the leading producing nation (Kostick, 2010). Chemicals using for deicing have physical and chemical properties; their melting capacities have great differences due to their properties.

  • 27. Freeze And Thaw In Concrete The Effects of Freeze and Thaw in Concrete Most people think concrete is an impenetrable solid. But in actually, concrete is a porous material with many capillaries and voids throughout the surface. Although concrete is strong in compressive strength, it is weak in tensile stength and elasticity. Concrete can tolerate heavy loads, but it is susceptible to damage which causes it to break apart over time. One damaging effect is freezing water. When water melts, it absorbs into the pores and capillaries. As the water freezes and expands, it weakens the strength of the concrete. This causes concrete scaling, delamination, and cracking. The freeze and thaw cycle isn't restricted to just northern climates. It also occurs in warmer climates where the temperature drops below freezing at night, and rises above freezing during the day. Sometimes deicing chemicals are applied to the surface to temporary lower the melting point of ice by ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

There was a serious wetland loss from 56.17% in 1993 to 28.57% in 2002 in Canaan Valley area due to the dramatically decrease in forested/ shrub wetland. The remaining total wetland area was estimated only 8814.606 acres by 2002, which was about half of wetland in 1993. The dominant wetland type was still forested/shrub wetland. Emergent wetland occupied a small amount with 16.6% of total wetland area. The Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge kept the main wetland. Both dry season (see in Appendix) and rainy season data show this big decrease happened in south part of Canaan Valley area. The disappeared wetland was replaced by urban area.

A lot of human actions lead to this wetland change such as developing urban area, tilling for crop production, and building a transportation system. It's clear to see that the major wetland area remained is in the east part of Tucker County, which is far away from the cities and roads network (Figure 5.1). Urbanization is a major cause of wetland loss. With increased population, more and more areas need to be extended for human activities. For many years, the value of wetland was underestimated. Roads and bridges are frequently constructed across wetlands since people thought wetlands have low land value.

Parents are now preferring to homeschool their children over public school due to many reasons such as religion, safety, academic quality travel, family togetherness, separation of government and school, mastery over grades, expenses, and focusing on learning plans made for the student. Public schools are institutions, which are funded by tax revenues from the government. Schools have boundaries to then figure out which students will attend a certain school to avoid overcrowding. The schools curriculum is drawn up by the state and they follow a standardized testing result and other measurements, which gives the state information of how the school is performing. According to Isabel Shaw, there are an abundance of pros and cons of deicing to homeschool your children. Some key points from this article were: Homeschooling Pros The advantages of homeschooling your children are that as a parent you get to decide what your child learns and at what age depending on their ability and level of interested and as a student you get to choose how long you want to learn about a topic and when you want to.

The Reason for its creation was because of the need of a new and improved medium bomber. This bomber went on to be a major role in The Doolittle Raid. The company known as North American Aviation to date has created nearly 10,000 B–25 Mitchells. Over the four decades of service the B–25 Mitchell came across many new and improved models such as the B–25A – B–25H.

After seeing that technology was becoming a big role in military, North American Aviation took the B–25A back to the drawing board. After making a few minor adjustments, the North American Aviation B –25B rolled off the assembly line. The all new B–25B had a brand new autopilot system aboard, while being able to accommodate a six man crew, gaining to new power operated gun turrets but in the end losing the tail gunner. While the B–25B was going into service North American Aviation was already back at it thinking of new and improved ways to already make the aircraft better than it already was. This ended up leading to the creation of the new structurally, and mechanically modified B–25C. How the new aircraft was structurally modified is by the change in the aircraft's dihedral which lead to the aircraft being more stable while in flight.

We will look at aircraft systems designed for such operations and we will be analyzing the misunderstanding that many pilots have about this issue. One of the biggest misconceptions is that an aircraft equipped with deicing equipment makes it rated for known icing conditions. We will briefly look at the regulations on aircraft certifications and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... We will be focusing more on airborne anti–icing as part of Aircrafts rating for flight and the known icing conditions as defined by the FAA. While ground removal of ice is not the focus FAR 135.227 and FAR 91.527 state. "No pilot may take off an aircraft that has frost, ice, or snow adhering to any rotor blade, propeller, windshield, stabilizing or control surface; to a power plant installation; or to an airspeed, altimeter, rate of climb, flight attitude instrument system, or wing, except that takeoffs may be made with frost under the wing in the area of the fuel tanks if authorized by the FAA." (FAR, 2016) There are always exceptions to this rule including meeting training requirements of FAR 135.341 and meeting additional criteria outlined in FAR 135.227. There are several deferent types of ground de–icing including manual removal and the use of chemicals or solutions (some heated) to remove ice and snow or preventing ice buildup on the aircraft during the takeoff phase of flight. This is only to protect the aircraft until the aircrafts own anti–icing equipment can become effective. Some good sources for ground deicing processes and procedures can be found in Aeronautics Information Manual (AIM) under section 7–5–14. As well as the FAA's Standardized International Aircraft Ground Deice Program (SIAGDP) (2010).

On a cold and snowy day just after 4 o'clock a 737 Boeing airplane crashed into the river near Washington D.C. The flight was supposed to return to Ft. Lauderdale, however, snow in Washington briefly closed the airport. When the airport reopened, the plane was de–iced, but still had difficulties once it got into the air due to the ice. Seventy–four passengers and five crew members were on the plane and unfortunately seventy–three of them died. When the plane crashes, it struck multiple vehicles and then hit a section of the bridge. On the bridge four people were killed and another four people were injured. The main reason so many perished were due to the extreme cold of the water, the snow storm conditions and the heavy traffic, which prevented firefighters from reaching the site of the crash, and the failures of Air Florida's flight crew. The water temperature in the Potomac at the time was around thirty–four degrees Fahrenheit. According to Amanda Ripley's "The Unthinkable", "humans have a low tolerance for extreme temperatures and cannot spend long periods of time in those ranges. After a certain amount of time heart rates start to lower, blood vessels constrict which causes pain. Blood would begin to abandon extremities to frostbite, choosing to save your heart instead".

The Chinese and the Egyptians were the first to use salt on a large scale. The Egyptians collected evaporated salt from the sea and the Nile and they used the salt in their food as well as an essential ingredient in preserving the body during mummification. The Chinese used evaporated salt to salt fish and to create a condiment that we still use, soy sauce. It was the Romans, though, with their fish based diet that really used salt extensively in their cuisine. The next several chapters deal with the importance of salt in Christian Europe during the middle Ages and into the Early Modern period. In Catholic Europe, the church had placed certain dietary restriction forbidding meat on Fridays and church holidays. This created an enormous market for fish.

The slope represents the average Van't Hoff factor multiplied by the freezing point constant of water, (i)(Kf). Then calculate each trial's Van't Hoff factor by using Equation 2. This originated from the freezing point depression equation: i = О”T/((Kf)(m)) (Equation 2) The freezing point constant (Kf) of water is 1.86 В°C m–1. Each mass amount and Van't Hoff factor was calculated then analyzed in a table. Experiment 2: Experiment 2 focused on finding the enthalpy of solution of magnesium chloride. Testing the enthalpy of solution started with measuring out 10 mL of deionized water in a graduated cylinder for three separate trials, each trial having a different mass of magnesium chloride. The water was then poured into a well of a Styrofoam calorimeter then the initial temperature of water was taken using a temperature probe and the LoggerPro programming.

That is true some times, although the majority of plane crashes occur largely due to a combination of human error and mechanical failure. In much of aviations accidents mechanical failure has been a contributing factor. It is impossible however to blame plane crashes on one reason since events leading up to an accident are so varied. Reasoning for plane crashes can be placed in a broad number of categories. Environmental conditions play a vital part in aviation as a whole.

This accident could have been avoided if proper procedure was followed in deicing. The NTSB investigation concluded that the combination of the crew's use of thrust reverse on the ground for push back, and their failure to active the engine anti–ice system caused the crash. By failing to activate the engine anti–ice system, large amounts of snow and ice that were sucked into the engines during reverse thrust were allowed to remain there. Ice built up on the compressor inlet pressure probe, which measures engine power. As a result instrument indications in the cockpit showed an Engine Pressure Ratio of 2.04, while the power plants were in reality only producing 1.70 EPR, or about 70% of available power. The combination of the ice covered wings and low power caused an immediate stall on takeoff killing 74 people. (Kilroy, 9). In Americans Eagle Flight 4184 October 31, 1994, heavy air traffic and poor weather postponed the arrival of this flight at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, where it was to have landed en route from Indianapolis, Indiana.
