The team faced a significant problem that they had to address this week. We contacted the supplier of the high temperature thermoelectric generator (TEG) we were interested in acquiring and found out it is no longer being produced. Fortunately, we were able to talk with a subject matter expert and gain lots of valuable insight. After meeting with our coach and liaisons, we have decided to still pursue the TEG concept with our immediate focus on researching the feasibility of creating such a device, including exploring materials like silicon carbide, and investigating how results could be scaled up from a lower temperature device. While working together, we also created the preliminary design architecture for our project. Lastly, the team finalized plans for visiting the GE Aerospace site in Cincinati, Ohio and presenting the preliminary design report.
