What will unlock greater capability for the F-35?
The Enhanced Power and Cooling System (EPACS) represents a leap forward in power and thermal management technology, integrating solutions that have delivered advanced cooling for both commercial and military aircraft. Matt Pess, director for Power & Controls at Collins Aerospace, explains how EPACS will solve the challenge of doubling the cooling capacity for the F-35 aircraft. By using commercial technologies with millions of flight hours, EPACS can safeguard the F-35’s fuel and range and provide the cooling needed to sustain system upgrades and future capabilities.
"We really can't break the laws of physics, so how do we make them work for us so that we can do more or do something that we've never tried before?"
