Energy systems for transportation technologies

Abstract

The objective of the work developed in this master thesis is to implement in one system for the transport people in underdeveloped mountainous regions in Nepal. This is based on the idea of Asso. Prof. of Physics Lok Bahadur Baral from Tribhuvan University in Kathmandu (Nepal), who started to develop a gravitational potential energy for transportation. His work was conducted under supervision of Prof. Kartnig at the Department of Engineering Design for Transport and Conveying Systems at Vienna University of Technology in collaboration with Tribhuvan University. This part of the project is to develop the power supply for the infrastructure created by David Guerrero in his bachelor thesis. The infrastructure is already designed to receive one engine that will give the power necessary for this to be successfully accomplished. For the engine to work we have to have some energy supply in our system, that energy requirement will originate from a variation of renewable energy technologies.
