The TheMa4HERA project takes on the huge challenge of on-board thermal management that comes with the introduction of hybrid electric power and propulsion systems in Regional and Short and Medium Range aircraft. This will be achieved through development, design and testing at TRL 5 of wide range of innovative technologies from Air Supply, to Air Conditioning, Systems Thermal Management to Cabin Air Distribution. Whereas today’s thermal management systems need to handle a heat dissipation of about 35-50kW, tomorrow’s hybrid electric regional aircraft will have to handle heat dissipation in the range of 300 to 1.000kW! With a consortium composed out of all key aerospace players in the market of thermal management, this project will address almost all currently known thermal management technologies. Multiple two-way interactions loops with TRA-01 will be established integration requirements and feedback constraints and validation results, to allow for further aircraft architecture optimization iterations. Through the development of a full digital twin, the project will be able to simulate and optimize component level requirements for any given aircraft architecture. This architecture will be taken from the EXACT project, adjusted and refined throughout the project, to eventually reflect the final Hybrid Electric Aircraft architecture. The project will validate and demonstrate its results in a full-scale demonstration test facility at Fraunhofer IBP. With the further refined models, that will be available by then, the project will also be able to calculate the achievements towards the Expected Outcomes, in particular the environmental footprint. The Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation actions will make sure that all necessary stakeholders will also be supportive to the EIS of the first Hybrid Electric Regional Aircraft relying on TheMa4HERA thermal management technologies.

MA4HERA项目面临着在区域和短距离飞机中引入混合电力和推进系统所带来的板载热管理的巨大挑战。这将通过从空气供应到空调，系统热管理到机舱空气分配的广泛创新技术的TRL 5的开发，设计和测试来实现。尽管今天的热管理系统需要处理约35-50kW的热量散热，但明天的混合动力电动飞机将不得不处理300至1.000kW范围内的散热器！通过在热管理市场中由所有关键航空航天参与者组成的财团，该项目将涉及几乎所有当前已知的热管理技术。将建立具有TRA-01的多个双向互动循环，建立集成要求和反馈约束和验证结果，以允许进一步的飞机体系结构优化迭代。通过开发完整的数字双胞胎，该项目将能够为任何给定的飞机体系结构模拟和优化组件级别的要求。该架构将从确切的项目中进行，该项目在整个项目中进行了调整和完善，以最终反映最终的混合电动飞机建筑。该项目将在Fraunhofer IBP的全尺度演示测试设施中验证并演示其结果。借助进一步的精制模型，到那时，该项目还将能够计算出预期结果的成就，尤其是环境足迹。沟通，传播和剥削行动将确保所有必要的利益相关者也将得到依靠Thema4Hera热管理技术的第一架混合电动区域飞机的EIS。
