Therefore, it is very important to have ice detector to detect the presence of ice. Ice detector model from UTC Aerospace System can be used to calculate ice accretion rate, liquid water content (LWC) and ice load [11]. 6) Ballonet/ hull cavity oxyhydrogen gas monitoring and flush control The function of this control system is to monitor and keep the air from mixing with the lifting gas.
