Abstract
An electricity production system for an aircraft comprising a fuel cell, with an anode and a cathode, supplying an electric motor, a first feed pipe between the anode and a hydrogen source, a compressor, a second feed pipe between the inlet of the compressor and an oxygen source, a first transfer pipe between the outlet of the compressor and the cathode, a valve, an upstream pipe between the outlet of the compressor and the valve, a downstream pipe between the valve and an air outlet, and a controller which controls the position of the valve and the flow rate of the compressor. Such an electricity production system thus provides better control of the air flow supplied to the fuel cell on the basis of the electrical power required for the electric motor providing propulsion.
