Seventh Partial Report on the Precipitation Static Problem

Abstract

Laboratory experiments are described that analyses three different wick-type static discharges under various conditions commonly encountered in actual flight. Results are given which show the superiority of a metalized cotton wick over two liquid-impregnated cotton wicks and the superiority of a cotton wick impregnated with an ethylene glycol-water mixture over one impregnated with a clycerin-water mixture at temperatures below 0 deg C.
