Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An ice protection system for an external surface for an aircraft. The external surface is configured to have air flow over the external surface and has a plurality of zones. At least one heat source is thermally coupled to the external surface in each zone of the plurality of zones. A controller is configured to selectively control the at least one heat source in each zone of the plurality of zones based on an operating condition related to the air flowing over the external surface.
