Abstract: An aircraft includes external structures, and one or more thermal emitters integrated with one or more of the external structures. The one or more thermal emitters are configured to generate heat to deice the one or more external structures. The one or more thermal emitters are configured to receive electrical power from one or more of an auxiliary power unit of the aircraft, a power distribution system of the aircraft, one or more engines of the aircraft, or an external power cart that is separate and distinct from the aircraft.

Abstract: A cutting tool that includes an elongated body with a first end and an opposing second end. A cutting edge is positioned at the first end. A heat pipe extends within an interior space of the body and has a first end in proximity to the cutting edge and a second end in proximity to the second end of the body. The interior space is enclosed within the body and comprises walls that extend around an interior space. The walls comprise a geometric configuration for a liquid within the heat pipe to move towards the first end of the heat pipe during rotation of the body.
