My PPE subject is to run a radio-controlled car (thermal based) on a 40m corridor in less than 2 min thanks to clean energy
As we have just started we have identified several ideas that we must develop before the teachers choose us one of these systems.
Constraints:
-No the right to use the EDF network
- You have the right to recharge your system (battery for example with a non-polluting source, a crank or a solar panel for example: p) but in less than 1 hour
Our ideas {and problems
}:
-The fuel cell
{in this part no problem we have what it takes}
-The "water rocket" system: we use the principle of water rockets to turn a turbine that drives the car.
{ Question 1 : I would like to know how to assemble a system of this kind, in particular for the sealing and for the choice of the turbine}
-Battery usage
{ Question 2 : how to choose the battery? but above all what non-polluting processes can be used to charge it in 1 hour?}
-Use of mechanical energy
{We thought of two things: The flywheel that can be adapted for example with the "water rocket" system, or the spring motor systems.
Question 3 : how can we make a spring motor (like in Mc Donald's toys for example lol: p), we can find some and is it powerful enough to travel 40m?}
Here, here
It would be cool if you could answer a few of these 3 questions
Thank you very much
