Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A component for an aircraft and an aircraft with such component. The component includes a heat source enclosed by a housing, heat exchanger, heat sink, at least one structural suspension element, and an air duct. Each structural suspension element is attached to an inner surface of the housing and supports one or more of the heat source within the housing. The heat sink is part of the housing and configured to guide air from an inside of the housing an outside of the housing. Each heat exchanger is thermally coupled to the heat source. Each heat exchanger is fluidly connected to the heat sink via an inlet line and a return line for a coolant. The air duct is configured to guide ambient air from the outside through the housing, past each of the at least one structural suspension element, and through the heat sink out of the housing.
