Zusammenfassung:A motor temperature control system for an electric aircraft is provided. The motor temperature control system includes an electric motor, circuitry and a thermoelectric generator (TEG). The TEG is disposed in thermal communication with the electric motor. The TEG is electrically coupled to the circuitry such that heat generated by the electric motor is converted by the TEG to electrical energy that generates a voltage drop across the circuitry.
