Abstract
A method of operating a fuel management unit for a fuel system. The method including: receiving data indicative of a state of an exhaust assembly using a sensor of the fuel system, the state of the exhaust assembly including a temperature of a working gas flow within the exhaust assembly; determining an amount of a hydrogen fuel in a liquid phase to provide to a hydrogen delivery assembly in response to receiving data indicative of the state of the exhaust assembly; and directing one or more components to provide the determined amount of the hydrogen fuel to the hydrogen delivery assembly.
