Abstract

The invention relates to a method (100) for temperature control of a fuel cell system (10) of an aircraft engine (2) of an aircraft (1), as well as a fuel cell system (10) for an aircraft engine (2), or for an aircraft (1) with an aircraft engine (2). The fuel cell system (10) comprises a temperature control system (20) and a separate heating system (50) to enable the fuel cell system (10) to be heated even at very low system temperatures (T), which are below a first threshold value (T1). The heating system (50) can be connected to the temperature control system (20) of the fuel cell system (10) as required.
