摘要： An aircraft has an electric motor to generate thrust and a power electronic module to provide power to the electric motor. The power electronic (PE) module has an output power to fluidly couple the electric motor and the PE module. The aircraft has an alternating current (AC) lead to electrically couple the PE module and the electric motor by way of the output port. The AC lead is submerged within the output port by a liquid coolant. The aircraft also has a cooling system including a heat extractor. The cooling system passes the liquid coolant through the PE module including the output port, then through the electric motor, and then through the heat extractor.

摘要： An aircraft has an aircraft propulsor and/or an aircraft propulsor drive. The aircraft propulsor and/or an aircraft propulsor drive acts as a waste heat source. The aircraft has a metal-air fuel cell. The aircraft has a waste heat transfer system configured to thermally couple the metal-air fuel cell and a waste heat source. The aircraft includes a control system configured to operate the waste heat transfer system to selectively transfer waste heat from the waste heat source to the metal-air fuel cell.

摘要： One embodiment is an aircraft having a least one of an aircraft motor or an aircraft motor drive, and a metal-air fuel cell. The aircraft has a waste heat transfer system including a diverter system. The diverter system selectively couples the metal-air fuel cell and the at least one of the aircraft motor or the aircraft motor drive. The aircraft has a control system to operate the waste heat transfer system to selectively transfer waste heat from the at least one of the aircraft motor or the aircraft motor drive to the metal-air fuel cell. The control system determines a power output status of the metal-air fuel cell, and to operate the diverter system to transfer the waste heat from the at least one of the aircraft motor or the aircraft motor drive to the metal-air fuel cell in response to determining the power output status.
