Water impingement on aerodynamic surfaces represents how much flow rate water mass impact on the surfaces, respect to total mass flow rate. This parameter, together with Liquid Water Content, is important in ice prediction since it defines water mass distribution on solid surface, by which depends several other problems like freezing fraction, anti-icing system, etc. In this work we focus on the lagrangian method to calculate droplets’ trajectory, comparing the results against 2D and 3D experimental data.
