Thermal Management System of next generation aircrafts is crucial. Among the cooling strategies for temperature-sensitive devices, this study analyzes the potential application of Phase Change Materials to absorb thermal transients of a battery pack. rnTo understand the thermal behavior of different PCMs, a preliminary 1-D analytical model has been developed.rnrnrnrn
