Abstract
An aircraft electrical component cooling arrangement comprises at least one electrical component (40) housed in a body (38), for example an engine'"'"'s electronic controller, characterised in that fuel is passed through the body (38) and directly over the component (40). Advantageously, this maintains a uniform temperature of the electronic components, protection against internal and external fire, ability to further miniaturise electrical components and/or combine units due to enhanced cooling effectiveness over convention air cooled systems.
