Keywords: aerodynamics, ice accretion, icing

Simulated contaminations on the NASA MS(1)-0137 airfoil with Fowler flap were investigated in a low-speed wind tunnel. The model contaminations represented leading edge ice accretion, ice accretions on the upper surface and leading edge insect contamination. The lift, drag and moment and pressure distributions were evaluated.
