i have to design a vehicle that will accelerate up a 1/8 gradient hill to 11.11m/s in 15s
i need the effort required and wheel torque.
mass = 170kg
rolling resistance = 50N/t (0.05N/kg)
air resistance = 13.6N
g = 9.81m/s^2
i have calculated:
a = 11.11*(1/15) = 0.74m/s^2
theta = 7.18 deg
sin theta = 0.125 deg
so i have the effort as:
E = ma+mgsin_theta+Froll+Fair
E = 125.8+(170*9.81*0.125)+0.05+13.6
E = 347.9125N
is E the torque i need at the wheels?
if not how would you go about working it out.
i tried with a motor of 40N, wheel radius of 0.2m and gear ratio of 10:1
i worked it out like this.
axle torque = 40*10 = 400N
so to find the torque at the wheel do i divide the axle torque by wheel radius
400/0.2 = 2000 that seems wrong to me??
