Why have an inlet at all? A diaphragm of flexible material covering a void at some set Pressure. The deflection of the 'Tympanum' is the a/s. In another application, perhaps a "particle separator"? Very important (expensive) Helicopter kit. At these temps, it really isn't ice, it is more like "sand"?
