Lithoz 3D Prints Aluminium Nitride Heat Exchangers for Hydrogen Aircraft

Lithoz 3D prints aluminium nitride heat exchangers for hydrogen aircraft

Lithoz, an Austrian company specializing in ceramic 3D printing, is manufacturing aluminium nitride (AlN) heat exchangers for hydrogen-electric propulsion systems in megawatt-class aircraft. The work forms part of the EU-funded TRIATHLON project, which aims to create more robust, low-emission, low-maintenance powertrains to support the decarbonization of aviation and improve system sustainability. Ergon Research designed the […]

Lithoz developing ceramic heat exchanger for hydrogen-electric propulsion systems through TRIATHLON consortium

Lithoz is printing the heat exchanger in aluminium nitride (AIN), believing that these systems manufactured with this material will help to decarbonise aviation, improve system efficiency and sustainability, and reduce maintenance.
