Technology - Electrical Drive Engineering
Electrical Drive Engineering The   electric   direct   drive   motor   solution   with 3     separate     controllers     and     ‚intelligent' startup    software    provides    that    different kinds   of   energy   storages   can   be   used.   For example    you    can    select    for    each    motor segment    not    only    different    battery    types even   more   than   this:   solar   cells,   fuel   cells or    electric    power    generator.    In    this    way there    is    great    variety    of    energy    sources possible.     We     are     favoring     for     future technology    a    combination    of    high    power LiIon      batteries      in      combination      with reformer    fuel    cell    techniques    consuming ethanol. Our   two   blade   folding   propeller   designed by Jürgen Arnold (scientist at the DLR Göttingen)   and   produced   by   ‚HELIX'   has am   maximum   efficiency   of   92%   at   cruising speed   (50   mp/h).   With   the   electric   drive efficency    of    the    same    amount    we    only need   a   4   kW   fuel   cell   stack   to   cruise   with DESiE all day long.
