PROPULSION ASSEMBLY FOR AN AIRCRAFT, HAVING AN EXTRACTION FAN

An aircraft propulsion assembly that has a nacelle with a front opening and a rear opening, a propeller driven by an electric motor, a fuel cell supplying the electric motor with electric current, an inner channel arranged in the nacelle between the front opening and the rear opening. The electric motor and the fuel cell are disposed in the inner channel. A motorized fan is arranged at the rear part so as to draw in the air present in the inner channel and expel it to the outside through the rear opening. A control unit controls the motorized fan. With such an arrangement, the outside air cools the inside of the nacelle and the dihydrogen is evacuated.
