Scope
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides descriptions of test procedures and established practices for the application, use, and administration of the conduct of icing testing for all types of turbine engines in conventional supercooled liquid (14 CFR Part 25 Appendix C) environmental conditions in ground test facilities (sea-level and altitude) for icing certification purposes.
Rationale
The aim of the document is to assemble and record the current knowledge and test processes for the use of the engine icing test facilities in support of airworthiness certification. There is a particular need to identify and understand the defined test processes that have the greatest influence on the accuracy of the results. The document will address the key concerns and illustrate some of the different types of approached used.
AIR6189 has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE Five-Year Review policy.

Issuing Committee
EG-1E Gas Turbine Test Facilities and Equipment
The SAE EG-1E, Gas Turbine Engine Test Facilities & Equipment committee addresses all facets of test facility design, operation, maintenance, calibration and measurement, relating to gas turbine engine testing. The group is dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specifications, standards, and requirements in this field.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
