ISBN: 9780471674191.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesign or build a battery-powered electric bicycle\nFor much of the world, bicycles are a transportation mainstay. Electric bicycles--powered by a rechargeable battery pack--are proven to deliver the highest possible energy efficiency, even compared to pedal bikes. A transportation alternative to fossil fuels, electric bicycles are fast catching on, in part because they dont require factory assembly. End-users can easily construct them with available components.\nThe text reveals important techniques, data, and examples that allow readers to judge various propulsion setups--used in both home- and factory-made bikes--and estimate speed and travel distance for each. Numerous charts clearly present the costs, benefits, and trade-offs between both commercial and user-converted models.\nKey features include: Estimating motor-performance for wind, hill, and cruising power requirements Estimating battery capacity and a thorough description of battery charging Motor and motor-control options Evaluating motor-to-wheel coupling options Placement of propulsion components Configurations and performance How systems-engineering techniques can produce electric-bicycle designs that have long travel range and low life-cycle cost Testing Developments to watch\nA comprehensive resource for harnessing innovation, Electric Bicycles is the definitive practical guide to taking full advantage of this exciting alternative energy technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wiley-IEEE Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44980436336693,"sku":"ByrdShop_0471674192","price":28.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780471674191_e456bc0c-9509-48c8-8cec-6df1bacbe144.jpg?v=1778753288","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/electric-bicycles-a-guide-to-design-and-use-ieee-press-series-on-electronics-technology-9780471674191","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
