On the use of Liquid Water Equivalent (LWE) for estimating snowfall intensity and freezing drizzle intensity versus the use of visibility Roy Rasmussen National Center for Atmospheric Research Presentation to OFCM meeting Feb. 14, 2008

Background Rough ice accumulation on a wing, the thickness of a thumbnail, leads to a loss of lift and increase in drag of 25%, requiring that aircraft be deiced with Type I (deicing), and/or Type II or IV anti-icing fluids (both either ethylene or propylene glycol based) to remove ice and protect against re-icing before takeoff. Holdover time is the period that deicing/anti-icing fluids protect against re-icing.

Background  Outdoor and indoor testing of deicing fluids for endurance time has shown that the liquid equivalent snowfall rate is the main cause for fluid failure: –Dilutes the fluid, leading to runoff –Causes the freeze temperature of the fluid to increase  Holdover times are also sensitive to fluid temperature

Deicing fluid endurance time as a function of liquid equivalent rate Regression analysis that provides a power law relationship is used for each fluid and each dilution for each weather condition

25 g/d2/hr = 17 minutes endurance time at -5 C 12 g/d2/hr = 100 minutes endurance time at 0 C 12 g/d2/hr = 55 min endurance Time at -5 C

Background An analysis of five aircraft ground deicing accidents showed that the snowfall rate as determined by a weighing snowgauge was nearly identical for each accident (near 2.5 mm/hr), but that the snowfall intensity reported to the pilot from the METAR using visibility ranged from light to heavy. “Common Snowfall Conditions Associated with Aircraft Takeoff Accidents”, 2000: R. Rasmussen, J. Cole, R.K. Moore, and M. Kuperman. J. Aircraft, Vol. 37, 110 – 116.

Background Since the current method to estimate snow intensity is based on visibility, I decided to do a follow up study to examine this relationship in more detail. Study based on observations from well shielded weighing snowgauges and calibrated automatic visibility sensors. Visibility sensor calibrated during snow conditions by a manual observer. Theoretical study also performed and compared to the observations. “The Estimation of Snowfall Rate Using Visibility”, 1999: R. Rasmussen, J. Vivekanandan, J. Cole, B. Myers, and C. Masters.

Day vs Night Visibility Visibility at night is twice as good as the visibility during the day for the same snowfall rate Means that going from day to night decreases the snowfall rate from heavy to moderate, or from moderate to light. The LaGuardia accident (3/22/92) occurred at night –Occurred under wet snow conditions –Snow intensity of light –Occurred at night

Summary Both observations and theory show that a given visibility is not uniquely related to only one snowfall rate due to: –a variety of crystal types –varying degrees of riming –varying degrees of aggregation –wet snow –difference in visibility between day and night for a given extinction coefficient Above suggests that the variation in visibility during the previous deicing accidents is real and potentially misleading.

Consider the use of SAE Type I when Type II/IV fluid cannot be used (see Table 1). 1) To be applied before first step fluid freezes, typically within 3 minutes. 2) Clean aircraft may be anti-iced with unheated fluid. NOTE: For heated fluids, a fluid temperature not less than 60  C (140  F) at the nozzle is desirable. Upper temperature limit shall not exceed fluid and aircraft manufacturers recommendations. CAUTIONS: Wing skin temperatures may differ and, in some cases, be lower than OAT. A stronger mix can be used under the latter conditions. As fluid freezing may occur, 50/50 Type II or IV fluid shall not be used for the anti-icing step of a cold-soaked wing as indicated by frost or ice on the lower surface of the wing in the area of the fuel tank. An insufficient amount of anti-icing fluid, especially in the second step of a two-step procedure, may cause a substantial loss of holdover time, particularly when using a Type I fluid mixture for the first step (deicing).

Consider the use of SAE Type I when Type II/IV fluid cannot be used (see Table 1). 1) To be applied before first step fluid freezes, typically within 3 minutes. 2) Clean aircraft may be anti-iced with unheated fluid. NOTE: For heated fluids, a fluid temperature not less than 60  C (140  F) at the nozzle is desirable. Upper temperature limit shall not exceed fluid and aircraft manufacturers recommendations. CAUTIONS: Wing skin temperatures may differ and, in some cases, be lower than OAT. A stronger mix can be used under the latter conditions. As fluid freezing may occur, 50/50 Type II or IV fluid shall not be used for the anti-icing step of a cold-soaked wing as indicated by frost or ice on the lower surface of the wing in the area of the fuel tank. An insufficient amount of anti-icing fluid, especially in the second step of a two-step procedure, may cause a substantial loss of holdover time, particularly when using a Type I fluid mixture for the first step (deicing).

PROBABILITY OF SNOW IN EACH HOT TABLE TEMPERATURE RANGE – TYPE I FLUIDS

The liquid equivalent rate of snow, freezing rain, snow pellets, ice pellets, and freezing drizzle is the primary factor causing aircraft deicing fluids to fail. The current NWS estimates of snowfall and drizzle intensity available to pilots via METARS through ASOS and ATIS is based on visibility, not liquid equivalent. The use of a modified visibility table is only a stop- gap measure. Need real-time liquid equivalent! The lack of liquid equivalent and precipitation type real-time information updated every minute is having a significant impact on aircraft deicing operations and is a significant safety factor

Remarks on Current Methods to Estimate Freezing Drizzle Intensity Currently used method to estimate drizzle intensity (light, moderate, or heavy) reported on METAR’s is based on visibility. This is true both with the U.S. National Weather Service, and also internationally.

Remarks on Current Methods to Estimate Freezing Drizzle Intensity Report by Allan Ramsay prepared for the U.S. National Weather Service ASOS program (Sept. 21, 1999) has shown that the use of visibility to estimate drizzle intensity is highly inaccurate in terms of the actual ice accretion rate on an exposed surface.

Freezing Drizzle Intensity Quotes from the Al Ramsey report to the U.S. National Weather Service: “It is clear that visibility-based criteria provide little or no information on the intensity of ice accretion from freezing drizzle.” “…data collected in this project clearly indicate that METAR/SPECI reports of FZDZ intensity, based on visibility, do not accurately represent the rate of ice accretion, and they may mislead users into selecting incorrect holdover times.”

Freezing drizzle ingest into engines can cause significant damage to fan blades (light freezing drizzle reported by METAR, heavy freezing drizzle actually occuring based on liquid equivalent)

Recent Impacts of Freezing Drizzle on Aircraft Taxiing for Takeoff On Oct. 31, 2002, eleven United 737 jet engines damaged to due ingestion of freezing drizzle at Denver International Airport. Observer reported light snow, however, if reported correctly would have been light drizzle by visibility. Ramsey algorithm indicated heavy freezing drizzle during most of the event. Cost to United: $2 Million. On Feb. 7, 2003, six Brathens 737 jet engines damaged due to the ingestion of freezing drizzle at Gardemoen Airport in Oslo, Norway. Observer reported light freezing drizzle. Actual rate was likely heavy, however, based on ice accretion observed on cars and other structures. On Oct. 30, , an additional seven United 737 jet engines damaged due to ingestion of freezing drizzle at Denver International Airport. Observer reported light freezing drizzle, Ramsey algorithm indicated heavy freezing drizzle for most of the event. Cost to United: $850K.
