Abstract
A heated leading-edge structure for an aircraft includes a leading-edge panel having an outer surface configured to be contacted by an ambient flow, and an inner surface opposite the outer surface, a rear panel arranged at least partially arranged at a distance to the inner surface, a closed chamber inside the leading-edge structure, a heating device attached inside the chamber, and an air conveying device in fluid communication with the heating device. The air conveying device is configured to convey air from inside the chamber through the heating device to be heated and returned to the chamber, such that a circulating flow of heated air is created inside the chamber.
