ACIONAMENTO DE UM MOTOR-HÉLICE UTILIZANDO CELULA DE COMBUSTÍVEL MOVIDA A HIDROGENIO VERDE

Abstract

- The use of fossil fuels to generate energy directly or indirectly produces gases and other pollutants that, when emitted into the atmosphere, contribute to the degradation of air quality, including affecting the health of the population, and to the intensification of the greenhouse effect, identified as the main responsible for global climate change, leading to the accumulation of carbon in the atmosphere. The present proposal aims to move a propeller mounted on the shaft of a direct current (DC) motor of a mini power plant, driven by a fuel cell powered by green hydrogen. The hydrolyzer will be powered by a photovoltaic plate, which will produce green hydrogen. A small-scale mini-power plant prototype plays a key role in product and solution development, offering a cost-effective way to test and improve concepts, engage stakeholders, and ensure technical feasibility before investing significant resources in full-scale projects. In this sense, the project involves a mini power plant using a fuel cell powered by green hydrogen that will drive a DC electric motor with a propeller. To generate hydrogen, the hydrolysis process will take place using a photovoltaic plate. Finally, it is expected to move the shaft-mounted propeller of the direct current (DC) motor using the green hydrogen concept, and prospect the data for a high-power electric drive system
