Multiply those 40 boxes per pallet by 33 and you get a good estimate of what a tractor-trailer can haul. Around 1300 banana boxes. I strongly suggest to get some extra hands to do this test.

@kennetlgager2854 7 месяцев назад

Here is a little help with the truck stuff . The red connector on the trailer is used for the Reefer to run on power when docked at a warehouse or on the ferry. Otherwise it runs on diesel or LNG from a tank under the trailer. Red and Yellow hoses are air for suspension and breaking. Two cables are for light, and a thick+ and - is 24V supply for hydraulic lift. The last cable is ABS. I hope to drive an electric truck soon 😊

And this is point 2 (as I do have experience in this area) ... then that is where back-end software comes into play ... ideally if you want to install a large number of high-powered chargers you'd get a specialised company to do it (i.e., like the one I work for) and that company could supply software that works on load balancing etc. etc. of the system ... if you know the departure time of a truck you can adjust the energy load accordingly (some trucks might be stationary for an hour whereas others might be there all afternoon and need to head out at night again etc.) because not all trucks will need max charging speeds. To be honest, it is a combination of the hardware solution that you put in place at the various locations ... coupled with ... the software solution that you provide with the instal.

@CreRay 7 месяцев назад

Is a glass half full, or is it half empty? Fact is that a substantial number of trucks today can be replaced with electric trucks. But it is only for those who are willing to see possibilities. Electric trucks are not as universal as their diesel counterparts and will be bought to fit a specific type of job. Series hybrid will never happen for a long distance truck as their diesel engines are designed to have optimum efficiency at motorway speed, not much to gain there.

@vincentgrinn2665 7 месяцев назад

@@CreRay the entire point of series hybrid is that their engines are decoupled from the speed of the vehicle, they run at their optimum speed regardless of how fast the vehicle moves, or at all i agree that BEV has a substantiial number of applications that work today, im just not sure the truck in the video is really one of them, its kind of pushing what is practical

On the return trip 15:15 the rear axle weights show 2.8, 2.8, -.- . Later when the trailer front axle is lifted 16:27, it shows only 3.7 on the middle trailer axle, confirming that the rear trailer axle is sharing the load but is not being counted in the stats. 🤔

If you do the math, the consumption is bad. A truck (tractor-trailer) consumes about 5 or 6 times the energy a car does. It should be around 100kWh/100km or 1000Wh/km. So yeah the 1890Wh/km or 10x factor is disappointingly bad.

@lagmonster7789 7 месяцев назад

@@benetra True that. According to google a Volvo FH diesel truck will consume about 25-35L of diesel per 100km depending on load, which is roughly about 5-7 times what a common diesel car would do. OTOH though.. 25-35L of Diesel works out to ~67,5 to 94,5kg of CO2 emission per 100km(2,7kg/l) and 189kWh/100km is ~5,67kg (Average of 30g co2 per kWh in Norway) that's 11,9 to 16,67 times better 😎

@@sciencetestsubject 210g Diesel per kWh seems in the right ballpark, some good automotive & truck Diesel engines can reach an effective efficiency of around 40-45%. There's ~38MJ of energy in 1L of Diesel, which is equivalent to ~10kWh. 1L of Diesel is about 850g so: 850g / (10kWh * 0,45) = 850g / 4,5kWh = 188.89g Diesel per kWh at 45% efficiency. at 40% it works out to 212,5g per kWh. So yeah pretty much spot on 👍🏼 I'd still like to disclaimer that burning 189g of Diesel emits ~600g of CO2, compared to the electricity grid in Norway which emits ~30g CO2/kWh 😉 P.S.

@stianthomassen6693 7 месяцев назад

So if this battery is 540kwh and the consumtion is 189 in -4°C it will give a range of 280km at winter. So if it acts like a car it's a 30% loss at wintertime, meaning a 133kwh/100km at summer time, meaning around 400km of range.

To put it another way, using this comment's own figures, that's nearly 100% of European time regulations maximum range, which is 4.5 hours at an average 90km/h - around 405 km. Drivers’ hours rules Regulation (EC)561/2006 "45 minutes break after 4.5 hours driving" "A break can be split into two periods, the first being at least 15 minutes and the second at least 30 minutes (which must be completed after 4.5 hours driving)" In other words, add in the chargers and there's the absolute on-par competition with diesel. Right there.

@SupremeRuleroftheWorld 7 месяцев назад

no, the loss is much less as very little is used to heat the cab as the truck uses 10x of a car but does not consume 10x to heat the cab. so its 20% of 10% to compensate for heating the cab.

@Kleuvert 7 месяцев назад

@michalvaner3167 7 месяцев назад

@@benetra I think more Tesla folks park inside a garage than along a street and if the garage is small (or cluttered), there's enough space to exit the car on the driver side. So its easier to plug in there. And the reasons why most EVs (the notable exception being e-Tron with the AC port on both sides, but only one DC) is you need to have double the length of high-current fat cables, probably separate contactors for each port, etc… the value added is probably not worth the extra expense and extra "safety" considerations (making sure the voltage from the charger on one side never goes to the other unplugged port). Plus some customer will try to plug the same car into two chargers to speed things up and someone will have to explain that no, it can't work that way...

Axle count doesn't play a huge role. In the end, it is the weight of the vehicle that determines the total rolling resistance. The number of axles doesn't play a big role.

Won't work in Europe, too many trees hitting the top off trailers, unless they cut more trees to help it

@Tobjuc 7 месяцев назад

would be nice to know what the consumption of a regular diesel truck would be. my dad was a trucker himself in germany on long haul trips and he averages about 28l/100km. considering thats around 280 kWh, it's not that much more than this volvo truck. even more interesting is the consumption of this truck on long haul trips on central europes highways. could be around 170 kWh/100km

@danielberma 7 месяцев назад

Sounds about right, but the difference is how the "fuel" is produced which is the biggest incentive for any electrical vehicle. I think we also must remember that this technology, in its current state, is the worst version of it. Over the next years or decades it will only improve.

@benetra 7 месяцев назад

At 40.000 kg total vehicle weight (max. allowed payload in EEA) and 90km/h it would consume 142kW. Out of which 44kW is rolling resistance (tires) and 98kW is aerodynamic resistance (drag). At 70km/h this would decrease to 21kW drag + 76kW rolling resistance = 97kW.

In Sweden, Scania has a full size EV truck + trailer hauling logs between the docks and a sawmill. Distance is 15km. So every turn is 30km (15km with load and 15 with empty weight). In the summer it can do three turns on a full charge (90km). In the winter only two turns, sometimes when it´s realy cold only one. This technology does not work for hauling cargo. This is just bad money spent.

@nordlands8798 7 месяцев назад

The speed going uphill is limited by the load, grade and maximum continous output of the electric motors. Assuming this is the 480kW version with 32tons and it uses 100kW to overcome friction/losses, then my quick calculation gives 5.5% as the maximum grade it could sustain 80 km/h. At 7% only 60 km/h.

@swecreations 7 месяцев назад

@@LoneWolf-wp9dn But going up a hill slow or going up a hill fast, you're still just lifting a set weight a set altitude upwards, how fast you're going is not a part of the equation there, that's just going to affect air resistance. If anything you have less to gain going slow uphill since the losses from air resistance are always going to be much lower than the energy needed to lift such a massive weight up a hill.

But something still needs to be done about charging power. 500kW should be the minimum here. These trucks are more than sufficient for the last mile!!!

You’re mixing up kW (energy) and kWh (power).
