1 Technical Assessment of Dry Ice Limits on Aircraft The objectives of this project were to develop an understanding of the parameters affecting the buildup of carbon dioxide in both passenger and cargo aircraft and to develop a decision tool for air carriers to use in determining the maximum quantity of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) that can be safely carried on board aircraft.

2• This project showed that there is a sound theoretical basis for limiting the number of packages containing dry ice in a cargo compartment using an area-normalized sublimation rate (which can be thought of as a mass flux)

3 • This analysis and associated findings have not considered the off-normal situation where there is a loss of ventilation. In such circumstances, the cargo hold containing the dry ice would become equivalent to an unventilated cargo hold.
