Confusing Eusebius church with hydrogen-powered demo heater?

Jasper, Henrico and Matthias are 2nd-year Mechanical Engineering students collaborating on a demonstration model of a hydrogen heater in the iconic Eusebius church in Arnhem. The students are thus contributing to the project of energy transition company HyMatters, which wants to achieve heating via heaters running on hydrogen instead of natural gas. It is a sub-project to fulfil the Eusebius’ […]

Digital simulation enhanced frame electrolyser

Koen Berns, 4th-year student at HAN Mechanical Engineering, graduated with research on the material properties and lifetime of the plastic frame in the electrolyser. He did this at XINTC Global based on literature research. Koen created a digital simulation of the improved frame. Koen (pictured left): “For my graduation project, I investigated a special type of plastic from which the […]

Electrochemical compressor for hydrogen

Investigating a new technique to humidify hydrogen for an electrochemical compressor. That is the challenging internship assignment for Sam Putman, 3rd-year HAN Mechanical Engineering. Until February 2023, he is doing an internship at HyET Hydrogen in Arnhem, where he is working on an electrochemical compressor for hydrogen. Sam’s supervisor is process engineer Wisse van Vliet, who explains the internship assignment: […]

New Smart Grid demo table unveiled

The Smart Grid Demo Table makes visible not only the power grid, but also issues of energy transition. Qconcepts Designing and Engineering helped HAN to improve this demo table. The work consisted of working out the wishes and requirements, designing a producible design and the final realisation of the product. This all worked out! On 12 December, the new demo […]

Assignment minor Powertrain fits into MORE

Some 60 students are involved in the HAN MORE (Modular Research Vehicle) project this semester. They are working on different assignments. Within the minor Powertrain, there is an assignment that focuses on propulsion using a hydrogen fuel cell. Students have taken up this assignment and managed to create something beautiful. The picture shows a small teaser: HAN MORE thanks sponsor […]
