Resumen
At alpine regional airports, aircraft are covered with frozen ice when they encounter extreme weather such as heavy snow or frost. The movement parts of aircraft cabin doors, flaps and landing gear may be affected due to the infiltration of freezing ice, and the movement stagnation may occur when the the accumulation of ice is more serious. This paper sets up a mechanical performance test of frozen ice for this engineering problem to provide data that is beneficial to the selection of the mechanism drive and the determination of ice-breaking loads. The test is conducted based on the standard tensile shear test. In order to overcome problems such as the poor icing effect of the traditional specimen or the easy damage of the specimen ice, we improved the structure of the specimen and the method of the test. According to the characteristics of growth of frozen ice, we introduced freezing time, type of water quality and adhesion materials as test variables. The results show that: the ice adhesion strength of frozen ice increases and then decreases (-15 ∘" role="presentation">°°

C and freezing for 2 h~6 h, the ice adhesion strength of aluminum alloy surface ranges from 0.009 MPa to 0.568 MPa, and that of frozen ice on a silicone rubber surface is 0.005 MPa~0.147 MPa. The duration of freezing did not significantly affect the adhesion strength of frozen ice. Among the three water qualities, the frozen ice from distilled water has the greatest adhesion strength, the lake water is the most medium, and the sea water is the smallest. The results of this test can be widely used in the determination of the ice-breaking load of civil aircraft, amphibious aircraft, ships, and the design of anti-ice/de-icing systems.
