Abstract
A propulsion system for an aircraft includes a hydrogen fuel system, a water recovery system and a water pressure and quantity monitoring system. The water recovery system uses a condenser to extract water from an exhaust gas flow. The water pressure and quantity monitoring system measures water pressures and quantities at various locations in the water recovery system to assess the health and efficiency of the water recovery/supply system and the propulsion system.
