摘要：A system and method is provided for measuring and metering deicing fluid as itis dispensed from a tank onto an aircraft to remove ice and to prevent subsequent icing.The system can include a guided wave radar gauge mounted on the tank to measure thevolume of fluid in the tank in real-time. As fluid is dispensed from the tank, the gaugemeasures the change in the volume of fluid in the tank and transmits the volume of fluidin the tank and the volume of fluid dispensed from the tank to a display/controller. Thesystem can also include a refractometer module to enable the measurement of theconcentration of a first constituent fluid relative to a second constituent fluid in a mixturethereof. The system can further measure the concentration of one deicing fluid

constituent (e.g. glycol) mixed with another fluid constituent (e.g. water) to determine thefreeze point of the deicing fluid.
