Abstract
A sensor includes an airfoil body, a heater element, and a temperature probe. The airfoil body defines a sensor axis and having a leading edge, a trailing edge, and an ice accretion feature. The heater element extends axially through the airfoil body between the leading edge and the trailing edge of the airfoil body. The temperature probe extends axially through the airfoil body between the heater element and the trailing edge of the airfoil body. The heater element is axially overlapped by the ice accretion feature to accrete ice chordwise forward of a tip surface aperture. Gas turbine engines, methods of making sensors, and methods of accreting ice on sensors are also described.
