Abstract
An on-board aircraft dried inert gas system includes a source inert gas containing water, an air cycle or vapor cycle cooling system, and a heat exchanger condenser. The heat exchanger condenser has a heat absorption side in thermal communication with the air cycle or vapor cycle cooling system. The heat exchanger condenser has a heat rejection side that receives the inert gas containing water and outputs dried inert gas.
