Abstract
An ice-breaking system for an aircraft, comprising a pneumatic ice-breaking device, an air inlet adapted to receive air from the environment outside the aircraft and an air outlet adapted to discharge air into the outside environment, and a motorized valve having an air loading port connected to the air inlet and an air discharge port connected to the air outlet, the valve being configured to supply air to the pneumatic ice-breaking device in a pulsating way. When the aircraft is in motion, the kinetic energy of the air at the air inlet and originating from the relative motion between the air and the aircraft is converted into air pressure at the pneumatic ice-breaking device, and the air outlet is positioned so that when the aircraft is in motion the air pressure at the air outlet is lower than the outside ambient pressure.
