    摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for a hydrogen fuel distribution system (100) with integrated thermal management. An example fuel distribution system (100) with integrated thermal management comprises a hydrogen fuel distributor (402) including a first tank (406) and a second tank (408). The hydrogen fuel distributor (402) circulates hydrogen fuel to a first fuel cell (606) and a second fuel cell (608). A coolant distributor (702) includes a heat exchanger (416). The coolant distributor (702) regulates a temperature of the fuel distribution system (100). A compressed air distributor (706) provides compressed air from a propulsor (730) to the first fuel cell (606) and the second fuel cell (608). An electrical distributor (602) transports electricity from the first fuel cell (606) and the second fuel cell (608) to an electric motor (726). The electric motor (726) drives the propulsor (730).

    摘要: An air vehicle power and thermal management system includes an aircraft controller structured to distribute power provided by a gas turbine engine between a cooling system and an electrically powered load. The controller is configured to direct the power to create a first duration cooling power to the cooling system to cool the engine fuel cooling medium over a first power time period. The controller is configured to shift the power to reduce the first duration cooling power to create a load electrical power to drive the electrically powered load over a second power time period. By operation of the controller to shift the power from the first duration cooling power to the load electrical power a second duration cooling power is provided to the cooling system to cool the electrically powered load using the engine fuel cooling medium that was cooled during the first power time period.
