Although it has been associated with skepticism by many experts in conventional aviation, the first hydrogen-powered aircraft is capable of converting into real algae.
The students of the University of Technology of Delft, who are autodenominating the AeroDelft team, were able to unveil a prototype called Phoenix PT, which completed the trials on earth without tripling.
Cómo is the first aviation powered by hydrogen
The first hydrogen-powered airplane has a weight of 113 pounds, with 2 pounds of hydrogen liquid for its inaugural fuel that has an estimated volume of 311 millimeters and a fuel hourly rate.
Without embarrassment, it is hoped that in the final, the aeronaut will present an average of 164 pieces and accommodation has 22 books of liquid hydrogen for a superior alcohol at 1,243 miles and a fuel hour of up to 10 hours.
Why hydrogen
AeroDelft students choose hydrogen liquid to feed their airplane only because it is the most lively element of the world, because it is possible to accumulate for three times the energy of the fossil fuels without emitting inertial gases. Radiate solo water vapor.
The Phoenix hub is designed, too, to have an unusually low airflow profile, with an electric motor mounted on the coke.
The project is initiated from 2018 with students of 23 nationalities, and it is hoped that this year a real inauguration will take place. Hacia 2015 the meta is to make a world-class first flight and the first commercial aircraft propelled by hydrogen comensaria to operate in 2035.
Airbus also plans to fly its first commercial aircraft this year. Its ZEROe program analyzes different configurations and technologies for hydrogen energy.
If well the liquid hydrogen is the combustible of choice for the special program, convert to the main combustible of commercial aircraft have its challenges.
The designers must ensure that their air conditioning on the side of aerial fuels is as secure as the existing commercial aircraft, as long as they develop hydrogen installation systems in the airports.
The extraction of hydrogen consumes a lot of energy, while exploring forms of “hydrogen hydrogen” median water electrolysis.
The University of Delft also held another hit in September, demonstrating with the success of a Flying V prototype, a design that combines much more efficient and combustible than traditional commercial aircraft.
We do not know if the hydrogen-powered aircraft is the solution that we are hoping for in any alternative way that Verken will be a hopeful.
