But you still have to demonstrate that a diesel engine running at a fixed rpm uses more fuel when it is driving an alternator than when it is driving the boat shaft.  |
You guys are driveing me mad!
There is efficancy loss when chargeing the battrys, but no efficancy gain when powering the screw from e-motors.
Running and chargeing e-motors results in a net efficancy loss. Less efficancy = more fuel for the same distance / time.
