Abstract: The technology relates to techniques for an aquatic energy discharge system for an energy storage system of an aircraft. An aquatic energy discharge system can include an energy storage system, a pair of electrodes coupled to the energy storage system, and a water detection system configured to detect a water landing. The electrodes can be configured to submerge in a body of water after the aircraft has landed in the body of water, and cause a hydrolysis reaction that drains energy from the energy storage system in response to the water detection system detecting the water landing. A method of discharging an energy storage system of an aircraft can include detecting that an aircraft (or portion thereof) has landed in a body of water, and discharging the energy storage system by powering a hydrolysis reaction using a pair of electrodes.

Abstract: A heat transfer system includes a first component formed of a thermally conductive material and a second component including a surface adapted to capture stray photons to provide heat to the electronic device. The first component is secured and thermally coupled with an electronic device. In particular, the first component includes first and second layers. The first component is in superposed relation with the second component.

Abstract: A buoyant aerial vehicle system includes a balloon, a ballonet configured to selectively receive and discharge a gas to adjust an altitude of the balloon, and an energy regeneration assembly. The energy regeneration assembly includes a turbine and an electric motor. The turbine is coupled to an outlet of the ballonet, such that gas released by the bayonet activates the turbine. The electric motor is operably coupled to the turbine and is configured to convert mechanical energy received from the turbine into electrical energy and convey the electrical energy to a battery.

Abstract: The technology relates to a scalable power system. A scalable power system includes battery modules connected in parallel, a network of diodes, a battery management system that may be localized or centralized, a localized battery management system configured to control an individual battery module, a centralized battery management system configured to control all of the battery modules in the scalable power system. In a system with localized battery control, a parallelizing circuit board may connect battery modules to a system bus in parallel. The battery modules can be charged and discharged by the system bus. A method of adding a battery module to a scalable power system includes discharging a highest-charged battery module, then discharging a next highest-charged battery module until there are no remaining charged battery modules, then adding an additional battery module in parallel, and charging the connected battery modules in parallel.
