Abstract:
An apparatus for providing foreign object debris protection and anti-icing capabilities to an air intake of an aircraft engine. The apparatus includes a frame having at least a portion configured to conduct fluids. A tube is positioned such that different portions of the frame are fluidly connected. There is a discharge outlet defined within the frame that is configured to discharge fluids from the frame into the air intake. An inlet is defined within the frame and is fluidly connected to a compressor section of the aircraft engine. In this manner, air from the compressor section of the aircraft engine can flow through the inlet, through the tube, and through the discharge outlet, to return to the compressor section of the aircraft engine.
