Design and realization of a new propulsion system for the solar boat.
Starting with an existing electric motor and a final drive of an outboard motor we need to develop a strong and reliable propulsion system to install in our new solar boat.
We take in account all the parameters such as speed, gear-ratio, dimensions, mounting facilities, ...
Furthermore, it needs to be easily accessible and simple to service and repair and build up in a modular way so that the different parts can be easily changed.
Also, a steering system has to be integrated in the concept
Goals:
Achieve knowledge into mechanical driving systems
Constructing a drive system, starting from a concept.
Focus on reliability and safety.
