For clarification, are you asking about carburetor induction icing? I have always thought that due to the installation configuration the carburetors are already pulling warm air from under the engine. I feel that on a hot day, sucking that warm air reduces engine power, and I have thought of ducting cooling air from the plenum above the engine...the inverse of carburetor heat.
I don't fly much in the carb icing temp range and have never experienced an issue. But I am in a dry climate. Have others experienced carb icing in humid environments?
