Abstract—This article shows the translation of a small-sized GTE from kerosene to cryogenic fuel. A comparison of cryogenic fuel types is proposed. The justification of the choice of the evaporate heat exchanger is shown, its characteristics are calculated. At this stage of the work, the most optimal scheme of the small-size GTE fuel supply system for unmanned aerial vehicles has been selected. 

Index Terms—Cryogenic fuel, liquid hydrogen, liquefied natural gas, heat exchange, small-sized GTE
