1. A water recovery system health monitoring system for an aircraft propulsion system, the water recovery health monitoring system comprising:
a condenser configured to extract water from an exhaust gas flow; and
at least one water pressure sensor configured to measure a water pressure downstream of the condenser; and
a controller programed to determine a health of a water recovery system based on information communicated from the at least one water pressure sensor.
