Abstract: A gas turbine engine including a core air passage, a combustor, and a steam line. The combustor is located in the core air passage and combusts hydrogen fuel producing combustion gases. The steam line is fluidly coupled to the core air passage at a position downstream of the combustor to receive a portion of the combustion gases. A conduit thermally coupled to an external surface of an aircraft may be fluidly coupled to the steam line to receive the combustion gases and to heat the external surface. The gas turbine engine may also include a water vapor condenser fluidly connected to the steam line to receive the combustion gases and to condense the water vapor of the combustion gases. At least one nozzle may be fluidly coupled to the water vapor condenser to inject the condensed water into the core air passage.
