Cryogenic hydrogen is being considered as a future aviation fuel since it eliminates CO2, CO, soot, sulphur, and unburnt hydrocarbons emissions. The storage temperature and high cooling capacity of cryogenic hydrogen also makes it a suitable coolant. In this paper a integrated heat exchanger in an interconnecting compressor duct (ICD) is analyzed with respect to heat transfer and transition.
