Abstract:
A cryogenic fuel system for an aircraft having a turbine engine with a compressor section and a combustion chamber, including a tank for storing cryogenic fuel, a supply line operably coupling the tank to the combustion chamber and a pump coupling the tank to the supply line to pump the cryogenic fuel at high pressure through the supply line where the pump is operably coupled to the compressor such that operation of the turbine engine drives the pump and a method for delivering fuel in a fuel system to a turbine engine.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus of using cryogenic fuel in an engine for an aircraft wherein the cryogenic fuel is supplied to the engine for combustion.
Abstract:
A system for fluid temperature control and actuation control for an aircraft engine fueled by dual fuels. The system includes a first fuel system having a first fuel tank fluidly coupled to the engine, a second fuel system having a second fuel tank fluidly coupled to the engine, with the second fuel being different from the first fuel and having a different temperature than the first fuel, a fuel distribution unit (FDU) fluidly coupled to the first fuel tank of the first fuel system, and a fuel-to-fuel cooler (FFC) configured to transfer heat between the first fuel in the first fuel system and the second fuel in the second fuel system.
