Abstract
An endothermic fuel system for cooling a heat source, which may be on a high speed vehicle, has an endothermic fuel decomposition catalyst which is capable of endothermically decomposing an endothermic fuel. The system also includes means for transferring thermal energy from the heat source to the catalyst in order to heat the catalyst to a temperature sufficient to endothermically decompose at least a portion of the endothermic fuel and to cool the heat source and means for contacting the heated catalyst with the endothermic fuel stream to cause the endothermic fuel stream to absorb the thermal energy and endothermically decompose into reaction products.
