Hey! I have a project where I'm building a car running from direct sun-light only using solar-panels and bike hub motors.
I would like to determine max velocity before cashing out on motors and panels. I have some numbers from the panels and motors I looked on, how do I turn them into the max velocity of my vehicle?
Mass: 200 kg
Tire diameter: 12" or 30.48 cm
Rolling resistance: 13.748
Torque: 33 N.m
RPM: 120 or 240
Gear ratio: Not sure if it's necessary since there is no gears and the wheel is running directly on the motors axis.
Diff ratio: I guess it's 1 since there is no gears.
Some of the numbers like the torque may be inaccurate since I have got it from some calculators in the internet.
Thanks
