Abstract
Ceramic heating devices with a three-dimensional ceramic element are disclosed for protecting surfaces from icing. The shape of the three-dimensional ceramic element can be configured to physically match to the three-dimensional profile of the protected surface, allowing for high thermal coupling with the surface. The shape of the three-dimensional ceramic element can also be configured to form an aerodynamic surface typically found on the exterior of aircraft.
