Bell Ringer Engineering Design Process When teams of engineers are trying to solve a problem, first they must define the problem. What other steps do you think they should take in order to reach their goal? Write your answers on a notecard.

The Problem In 2012, President Obama announced DOE “Clean Energy Grand Challenge” to US companies to be the first in the world to produce plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) by 2022. One of the most important technical challenges in the development of an electric vehicle, or EV, is the research and development of the power source. The U.S. Department of Energy has issued a “blueprint” for companies who join the challenge and targeted advanced battery development as one of the technical and performance goals.

THE CHALLENGE Your team challenge is to… Work as Cell Design Engineers to research, develop, and design a prototype galvanic cell that is able to produce a high voltage of electricity.

Criteria & Constraints Must produce Voltage greater than .750 V. Must be completed within timeline given. Must use only materials provided.

THE CHALLENGE Your team challenge is to… Work as Cell Design Engineers to research, develop, and design a prototype galvanic cell that is able to produce a high voltage of electricity.

RESEARCH Answer Key Why is a battery an example of energy transformation? Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy. A galvanic cell consists of what materials? 2 electrodes (metal) and an electrolyte (chemical solution). How do the electrons flow in a galvanic cell? The electrons flow through a conductor from the positive electrode to the negative electrode. How is the electric current measured? The electric current is measured in volts using a voltmeter or multi-meter.

Battery Fast Facts A battery is a package of one or more galvanic cells. A Galvanic cell  consists of two electrodes joined by an electrolyte. In a Galvanic cell one electrode is positive and one is negative. The electrolyte is usually an acid or salt. A conductor is used to close the circuit so the current can flow.

Energy Transformation Chemical Energy  Electrical Energy Electrical current Conductor Multi-meter lead + - Electrolyte = solution Two electrodes + Chemical Solution = One galvanic cell (Battery)

Criteria & Constraints Must produce Voltage greater than .750 V. Must be completed within timeline given. Must use only materials provided.
