Abstract
An aircraft propulsion system includes a core engine including a compressor, combustor, and turbine section. An inlet airflow is compressed communicated to the combustor, mixed with fuel, and ignited to generate an exhaust gas flow that is expanded through the turbine section. A water recovery system includes a series of condensers that include a series of passages for water containing exhaust gas flow. The series of passages are defined circumferentially about the propulsor axis such that recovered water drains downward in a direction of gravity through the series of passages.
