This technical project electrochemically analyzes the characteristics of a hydrogen fuel cell (PEM) using the finite element method. The modeled stack presents characteristics of the most commercially used in the industry, it is a single cell stack due to the complexity of the simulation. The pile has an active area of 70 centimeters squared that was modeled in a design program. For the study of the finite element method, the current geometry is simplified by eliminating details such as bolts, screws; leaving only geometry according to where the phenomenon can be observed. The mesh has an excellent rating structure within the Skewness method, which guarantees results. The results of the simulation detail phenomena such as the pressure drop in the channels where the fluid circulates, in addition to the increase in temperature along the stack, a current density is observed at the terminals. For data validation, a polarization curve is made by varying the voltage of the cathode terminal and it is compared with cell curves previously made and put to functional tests. The values between curves are very similar and most are found in a 10 percent relative error value.

The volume of consumption of the washing machine was determined by the exclusive water meter that has only to wash vehicles, with a monthly consumption of 15 cubic meters, because they have pumps that minimize the consumption of water to wash vehicles. For the sizing of the grease trap the formulas of the Standard are used: OPS / CEPIS. 2003 and Norma RAS., 2000. Title E.4.3., Pág. 28, where these base the measurements of length, width and height depending on your registered consumption. The dimensions of the containers for the filtering materials were based on the hydraulic delay necessary for each material to act. Peat, volcanic stone and activated carbon were chosen as filter elements, using the width of the grease trap the length of the container was calculated. The pipes used in the grease trap are drain pipes, since there is no pressure inside them. Therefore, only the gravity and height difference between the water inlet and outlet pipes are used, in order to circulate, filter and discharge to the sewer system.

(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2021-08) Rochina Rochina, Henry Daniel; Escobar Luna, Luis Eduardo
The study presented below consists of the exploration of extended surfaces that will be attached on a heat pipe in order to determine which of these has the highest efficiency based on the amount of heat that it can dissipate and also expanding the information concerning the manufacture of heat pipes. For this reason, four test specimen proposals were made, each of these shared initial characteristics such as geometry and test conditions. Once those characteristics were delimited, a specific extended surface was selected. The selected surfaces were radial placed at a defined distance from the evaporator. In addition, it was decided to carry out interior grooves of specific geometry, which will allow us to perform experimental tests looking for the main goal of the project. The structuring of the grooves was achieved based on a working mold; the wick used was copper powder. Additionally, a partial emptying of the test tubes was carried out in order to increase their effectiveness. Once the procedure was carried out, a quantity of heat was focused, obtained by means of a source or flame that granted an initial temperature of 300 degrees centigrade supplied to the evaporator, which allowed testing a temperature difference at the end of the test tube. The effectiveness was established by interpreting its temperature differential since, as it increased, it was reflected that the characteristics of the specimen are adequate to dissipate a greater amount of heat.

(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2019) Bautista Mollocana, José Luis; Escobar Luna, Luis Eduardo
For the design of the mini propeller turbine was considered an average flow of 0.3 m3/s. Once the flow was established, the design was started with the calculations for the impeller of the turbine. This considering the relationship that must exist between diameters, and that we have fixed blades so it does not require space in the bucket for the regulation mechanisms. Selected an inner diameter of 70mm and an outer diameter of 220mm. After the sizing of the impeller, the blades were designed. This is a component where the water collides and generates energy, for which the triangles of speeds were calculated, with this results was selected a Gottingen N428 profile. The profile is recommended by the author Adolph, who recommends this type of profile for applications in turbines and axial pumps as is the case of the present design. Once the design of the turbine was completed, construction was carried out, for which additive manufacturing, better known as 3D printing, was used. This fabrication was carried out with the PLA polymer. After the construction, the necessary tests were carried out to obtain the revolutions generated with this design, for which the turbine was installed in several places of the channel. The result was 350 ei 400 revolutions per minute.The result teorick tork was 19 Nm.

Using the data obtained in the channel, the mechanical and hydraulic design of the mini screw-type turbine of archimedes was carried out, for which it was of great need to use several documents of previous works on the subject, however, the most relevant document was "Design of a hydraulic turbine based on the screw of Archimedes", which is a thesis made by Julio Cesar Alberto Mejía. Most of the screw was made with A36 steel, except for the axle, and the bearings, these materials were not manufactured, but only purchased on the market. An optimal design was carried out for which the measurements of the channel, the weight of the structure, its assembly and transport were taken into account. It was determined that the construction of the turbine should have a length of 3 meters, a width of 2 meters and a height of 1 meter, with the tests the revolutions delivered by the mini turbine were measured, resulting in values between 125 and 160 rpm. Finally, taking into account all the tests, it was noted that at the exit of the ovals, a greater water velocity is obtained.
