  • Patent number: 12264990
    Abstract: A method and a system are provided for monitoring the state of a heat exchanger (17) in an air circuit (5) of an aircraft (7), the heat exchanger being intended to cool the air extracted from a source of a main hot air source of the aircraft. An acquisition module (11) is configured to acquire temperature measurements taken by a probe disposed at an outlet of said heat exchanger, the acquisition being carried out when the air circuit is supplied by a secondary hot air source downstream of the heat exchanger and the main hot air source being turned off. A processor (9) is configured to select a relevant temperature measurement from the temperature measurements and to detect a possible leak in the heat exchanger (17) by comparing the relevant temperature measurement to a predetermined alert threshold.
