Power and Thermal Management System
Overview
Our Power and Thermal Management System (PTMS) integrates a conventional auxiliary power unit, environmental control system and emergency power into a single system. On the F-35, the PTMS integrated power package delivers electrical power for the aircraft main engine start, auxiliary, and emergency power needs, while simultaneously providing thermal management of the aircraft heat loads. This integrated package, outfitted on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter aircraft and available for more electric architecture (MEA) aircraft, represents a first for the industry.
