The group met with Professor Gallagher on Wednesday, May 24, to discuss how the project has progressed. All team members have made good progress on their individual tasks. A more accurate kWh estimation was calculated using the emailed information from Andrew Fertig. Janet was able to determine a more accurate evaluation as to how much water the bicycle powered water pump would be able to move. This account depends upon the height of the tank from the ground. Jon was able to use the calculated energy needs of the compound to determine the number of batteries needed to store the necessary energy. Details on this progress will be included in future posts.
It was beneficial to meet with Professor Gallagher as it helped the group make sure that the project was progressing as expected. Gallagher expressed no main concerns about the project, just mentioned a few small details such as being extremely detailed in the report, almost to the point of redundancy, and making sure to properly obtain and describe all references. The final report was also discussed and Gallagher gave a few recommendations as to how to set it up.
