INTEGRATED POWER AND COOLING SYSTEM
Abstract: a system includes a hydrogen fuel delivery system for an engine that pumps hydrogen from a tank in a liquid state and an evaporator configured to convert at least some of the hydrogen to a gaseous state. the system includes a heat source thermally coupled with the system and fluidly uncoupled from the system. the system is configured to supply the hydrogen to the engine for combustion and cool the heat source using the hydrogen. the system further includes a coolant loop that circulates coolant between the heat source and the evaporator. the coolant loops includes a valve that splits the coolant flowing from the evaporator into a first portion that flows to a heater and a second portion that flows to the heat source. the first and second portions are directed to the evaporator after having passed through the heater and the heat source.
