It increases drag and fuel consumption, disrupts aerodynamic flows, and decreases lift\u2014which impairs the aircraft&#8217;s ability to fly safely. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS, Airbus and TU Dresden have developed a laser process that fills two needs with one deed. On one hand, accumulated ice falls off by itself and on the other it takes less heat to de-ice surfaces. Direct Laser Interference Patterning permits surfaces to be structured in ways that effectively repel ice.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-03-fast-ecofriendly-de-icing-aircrafts.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">A fast, ecofriendly way of de-icing aircrafts<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ice on an aircraft&#8217;s surfaces can be a hazard.
