Team Forming by drawing lots in Oct. 7 (Tue)
(1) Due - noon, Nov. 4 (Tue)
(2) Elect team leader
(3) Team leaders should obtain consent for the term project topic and title, then email instructor for team registration
(4) Late registration will result in a demerit in the final team score.
Presentation submission due : untill the prior day noon of your presentation
15 min of presentation + 5 min of discussion
Dec. 4 (Thu), 3:30 PM ~ 4:50 PM ----- Team A, B, C, D
Dec. 9 (Tue), 3:30 PM ~ 4:50 PM ----- Team E, F, G, H
* This schedule also applies to online students.
* There will be no additional final exam.
Presentation topic should be related to the fuel cells or the hydrogen economy.
Design your own Fuel Cell
system for example;
(1) Field of its application
and engineering requirements
(2) Selection of Fuel, oxidizer
- background of selection and logistics
(3) Electro-chemical reaction
(4) Description of design and structure
(5) Characteristic features compared to other types of power generation or storage
(6) Expected benefit to use the selected system
(7) Conclusion
Our project will investigate the design of a specialized fuel cell system for use in modern airships. We will first define its field of application and core engineering requirements, followed by a justification for the selection and logistics of hydrogen and its oxidizer. This presentation will detail the electrochemical reactions and present a structural design for the system. We will then compare its characteristic features against existing power generation and storage methods, outlining the expected benefits of adoption. Crucially, the project will conclude by analyzing the current technological and logistical challenges preventing this fuel cell system from being used for airship propulsion today.
