Airbus 'Pods'

Airbus 'Pods'

•  Airbus unveiled a new concept of 'Pods' in the place of 'Pylons' as a futuristic Propulsion system.
•  To be honest, Airbus is still the searching for answers for a suitable propulsion design using Hydrogen fuel to the campaign, it's ZEROe concept aircraft.
•  the searching team found one such concept of Self-sufficient Pods to power an eight bladed propeller system.
•  In other words, 'Pods' are basically stand-alone propulsion systems based on sodium hydrogen fuel cell technology under Airbus's ZEROe concept aircraft or airbus a319 united.
•  Each “pod” is proposed to house below sub-components/systems:

1.  A propeller.
2.  Electric motors.
3.  Fuel cells.
4.  LH2 tank.
5.  Power electronics.
6. A cooling system.
7.  A set of auxiliary equipment.

 How will the 'Pod' work?

•  Electric current will be produced from Fuel cells of pods by the supply of hydrogen and air.
•  Power action electronics will convert the current to power the electric motors which will drive the propeller.
•  Pods to have quickly removable fixtures for an easy hvac maintenance and hydrogen refueling operations in airports.
