H-CRAFT

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This year 2020/2021 I started a new academic stage at the University of Stuttgart where I had the opportunity to be involved in the Aircraft Design Seminar lectured by Herr Ingmar Geiß in collaboration with Airbus. Thanks to that I could work on a group project related to the next generation Hydrogen propelled aircraft. Together with my teammates Felix, Kostantin and Andreas we developed the H-Craft project.

The main objective of this project is to propose a reliable commercial aircraft based on Hydrogen propulsion systems. The use of that element would allow to completely reduce the CO2 emissions and also go a step forward on the future clean aircraft technology. Unfortunately, there are some drawbacks that difficult the use of LH2 as propellant but with the nowadays technological advances it is believed that most of them would be solved in a 30 years gap. With this goal in our mind the H-Craft project has developed the future Hydrogen based aircraft that would define a new base for the fight against the climate change.
