Abstract:
A method including providing power to an aircraft probe anti-ice system, monitoring an actual power demand of the aircraft probe anti-ice system, monitoring an air data parameter and atmospheric conditions surrounding an aircraft and calculating an expected power demand of the aircraft probe anti-ice system based on the air data parameters and the atmospheric conditions, comparing the actual power demand of the aircraft probe anti-ice system to the expected power demand, and performing a corrective action if the actual power demand and the expected power demand are different by more than an acceptable amount.
