    Abstract: A thermal management and power generation system for a hypersonic vehicle. The thermal management and power generation system comprising a fluid supply having a volatile fluid and a fuel supply having an endothermic fuel. A first heat exchanger, fluidically coupled to the fluid supply, absorbs heat from a first portion of the hypersonic vehicle, which vaporizes the volatile fluid. A mixing apparatus, fluidically coupled to the first heat exchanger and the fuel supply combines the vaporized volatile fuel and endothermic fuel. A second heat exchanger, fluidically coupled to the mixing apparatus, absorbs heat from a second portion of the hypersonic vehicle and decomposes the endothermic fuel by endothermic pyrolysis. A heat engine, fluidically coupled to the first heat exchanger and the mixing apparatus, is configured to generate an electrical power for use by the hypersonic vehicle. The vaporized volatile fluid mixed with the endothermic fuel within the second heat exchanger reduces coking caused by the endothermic pyrolytic decomposition of the endothermic fuel as compared to an endothermic pyrolytic decomposition of an endothermic fuel not having a vaporized volatile fluid mixed therewith.

    Abstract: An electric power management system of a vehicle may interconnect a power plant, a propeller drive unit, and a battery via a bus. A command limiting controller may direct the operation of the power plant and the propeller drive unit in fast and slow modes of operation, the fast mode of operation operating at a higher bus voltage than at a slow mode of operation. The command limiting controller may generate a bus current to drive the propeller drive unit according to a command limiting, voltage-versus-current curve that adjusts the bus current depending on an amount of voltage on the power bus; where the command limiting curve includes a minimum voltage portion, a maximum voltage portion and a control range therebetween having upper and lower voltage limits and upper and lower current limits for enhanced reliability and stable control of the propeller drive unit.

    Abstract: A toroidal shaped or ring fuel tank located within the loft line of a blended wing body aircraft is disclosed. The ring tank may be used in an aircraft to store liquid hydrogen fuel with a reduced tank weight. The ring tank may be continuous with no tank end domes typically found on cylindrical pressure tanks, reducing tank weight for a given fuel volume. The ring tank configuration avoids increasing the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft and does not encroach on usable passenger or payload areas of the aircraft. In one example the ring tank may be configured in a nose down position such that the forward portion of the ring tank is outside the pressurized cabin area.
