liquid water content, the mean effective diameter of the cloud droplets, the ambient air temperature, and the interrelationship of these three variables as shown in Figure 1 of this appendix. The limiting icing envelope in terms of altitude and temperature is given in Figure 2 of this appendix. The interrelationship of cloud liquid water content with drop diameter and altitude is determined from Figures 1 and 2. The cloud liquid water content for continuous maximum icing conditions of a horizontal extent, other than 17.4 nautical miles, is determined by the value of liquid water content of Figure 1, multiplied by the appropriate factor from Figure 3 of this appendix.

(b) Intermittent maximum icing. The intermittent maximum intensity of atmospheric

icing conditions (intermittent icing) is defined by the variables liquid water content, the mean ameter of the cloud droplets, the temperature, and the interrela these three variables as shown in this appendix. The limiting icing terms of altitude and temperatur Figure 5 of this appendix. The in ship of cloud liquid water conter diameter and altitude is deter Figures 4 and 5. The cloud liqui tent for intermittent maximum tions of a horizontal extent, ot nautical miles, is determined by cloud liquid water content of Fig plied by the appropriate factor i this appendix.
