Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for overheat prevention of anti-ice systems for aircraft. An example aircraft includes a wing, a slat movably coupled to the wing, the slat having a compartment to receive heated bleed air, the slat including a panel, an opening formed in the panel, a door in the opening of the panel of the slat, an edge of the door hingeably coupled to the panel, the door movable between a closed position and an open position, and a latch coupled to the panel, the latch to hold the door in the closed position, the latch constructed of a thermally sensitive material such that when a temperature inside of the compartment reaches a threshold temperature, the latch releases the door to enable the door to move to the open position to vent the heated bleed air from the compartment.
