ES2331 Communicating EngineeringWorksheetPresentation Worksheet 2 (Organization)Name: Kenneth Goh Zhong JingSection: 23Please fill in the worksheet before Tutorial 17.1. How are you organizing your presentation (e.g. MSP, narrative, cause-effect, etc.)Motivated Sequence Pattern

Attention Start by interacting with the audience by asking them a question: A show of hands how many of you are drivers? Proceed with giving a scenario of a problem I faced when driving: When driving a vehicle in rainy weather, very often the driver would request his passenger to help him wipe off the rain on the side view mirror as the rain droplets are hindering his vision. This problem is due to the hydrophilic nature of the mirror, causing them to adhere to the mirror surface. However, with the use of the hydrophobic coating, this problem would be eradicated. The same circumstances may also apply to aircraft pilots piloting a plane in adverse conditions.

Need High costs in de-icing / anti-icing an aircraft Provide examples: For a mid-sized corporate jet, if there is heavy wet snow built up, cost of removing freezing rain would cost up to $10,000 USD. Fuel consumption is an airline's largest expenses, therefore reducing fuel consumption is a high priority for operators

Satisfaction Introduce the nano-hydrophobic surface coating for aircrafts Explain how does the hydrophobic coating works How does it differ from other coatings Show simulation tests and demonstrations to illustrate the case

Visualization Explain how does coating helps the aviation companies: Decrease fuel consumption by increasing aerodynamic efficiency, and decrease costs of de-icing by lowering amount of ice built up State examples: A corporate airliner which applied the surface coating on one aircraft cited fuel savings of USD 5 million over a year

Action Reiterate how does the coating benefits the companies

2. Create a storyboard for your presentation. The storyboard should be a combination of text and visuals. The visuals can be simple symbols or doodles. An example is below. You can see other examples on pages 168-170 in Resonate. You can use as many boxes as you like to show your presentations organization.

Illustration shows how is the lift of the aircraft affected by icing conditions as opposed to clean conditions. Graph shows that there is a significant decrease in the lift, hence it is important for an aircraft to be de-iced to ensure that they are airworthy.Illustration of airfoil shows the build up of ice. Occurrences are more dominant in the leading edge (the front tip) of the wing

Illustration shows the breakdown of average airline expenses. It can be seen that the fuel and operational expenses make up a large bulk of airline expenses. Hence, it would be imperative to keep them as low as possible.

So what does this example got to do with aircraft? I am going to spend the rest of the talk showing you how would the coating be able to benefit aircraft companies and the industry in the broader picture.up from a mere 13% in 2001and this figure will only increase as the prices of fuel continues to skyrocketSomething that is really really very small,in nanometers,and one nanometer is a billionth of a meterto put some scale to that,if you had a particle that was one nanometer thick,and you put it side by side, and you had 50,000 of them,you'd be the width of a human hair.In our company, we have been researching on this particular technology for a number of years.Singapore Airlines 5900 million sgd in fuel consumption alone in a yearBoeing 777 is Singapore's most popular wide body aircraft. SIA has largest fleet of 777 in the worldfor boeing 777 ~1500 square metre need 65 gallons each for top and bottom coat USD $13,650 for whole aircraftOn the other hand SIA has a fleet of 107 aircrafts currentlythat means an average fuel consumption of 55 million dollars per year per aircraftWith fuel savings of three percent, that would mean savings of 1.6 million dollars per aircraft per year!3
