| I have a hypothetical question that I hope you electrical engineers out there can give me an answer to. If we have a boat that takes 5kw of power to do 5kts in calm conditions, so this becomes a constant. We have a 5kw motor providing the power at 48 volts. Now my question is, if we change this motor to a 10kw motor at 48 volts would the draw from the batteries be the same to do the same 5kts assuming nothing else has changed. Secondly if we used a 5kw motor at 96 volts would the power draw from the batteries again be the same to do 5kts. I'm trying to get a better understanding of the consequences of using larger motors other than extra weight and cost. Thanks for any help. Colin Girvan BC Canada |
