Abstract

An energy conversion arrangement (2) for an apparatus (1), a corresponding energy system (2), in particular for powering a propulsion unit (5) for propelling an apparatus (1), and an apparatus (1), in particular an aircraft, are provided, comprising a fuel conversion device (10), in particular a fuel cell unit, for generating electrical and/or mechanical energy by oxidising a reductant (R) contained in a fuel gas (F) by means of an oxidant (O) contained in a reactant gas (G), with at least one cathode element (32) configured to provide electrons (e) shed by the reductant (R) and to be picked up by the oxidant (O) during fuel conversion; at least one cathode channel (13) configured to lead the reactant gas (G) along the at least one cathode element (32); and at least one preheating duct (14) configured to lead the reactant gas (G) to the cathode channel (13) and to heat up the reactant gas (G) by heat provided by the reactant gas (G) in the cathode channel (13).
