We will taker look on A320 CFM56-5B anti-ice protection, but what is it good for?
The ice protection system of the engine air intakes is normally selected only in icing conditions.
Ice protection heats the intake cowls with air bled from the engine compressor.
The function of the ice protection of the engine air intakes is to supply bleed air to heat the inlet lip during icing encounters. This maintains the inlet duct of the engine free of harmful accumulation of ice.
The installation consists of ducting, coupling, seals, a shutoff valve, mechanical supports and a swirl nozzle.
The air bled from the fifth stage of the high compressor is the heat source.
A solenoid-operated shutoff valve (which is designed to be spring loaded in the closed position in case of failure) provides the on-off control. The swirl nozzle distributes the air within the leading edge of the intake cowl. The spent air exhausts via a flush duct in the aft cavity of the intake cowl.
