Solar Bike Viability Estimation

Calculations

# solarbike

# average bikeBatteryCapacity
bikeBatteryCapacity = 460 Wh

# solarPeak in winter vertical 
solarPeak = 21 W / (m ^ 2)

mpd = bikeBatteryCapacity / solarPeak
mpd / 0.5 m ^ 2 to hours
mpd / (10 cm * 16 cm)
mpd / 24 h
r = 500 mm / 2

tireArea = r ^ 2 * PI * 0.8
twoTireArea = tireArea * 2

twoTireArea / mpd

mpd / 0.5 m ^ 2

21 Wh * 2 / 387 Wh
60 km * 10 / 100
10 km / day to km/day
