Environmentally friendly the ship broke the previous world record silently across the Atlantic in just 22 days.
The world's largest solar boat MS Turanor PlanetSolar has a lightweight carbon structure and is covered with solar cells with a total area of 512 square meters, has 809 solar panels that are powering six blocks of lithium-ion batteries. They can generate 480 kWh on a Sunny day.
The ship spent the DeepWater expedition, gathering valuable data on the Gulf stream to help scientists better understand climate change. The purpose of the DeepWater expedition was to collect a continuous series of physical and biological measurements along the Gulf stream, both from water and from the atmosphere, using advanced instruments on Board PlanetSolar.
Epic journey environmentally friendly and noiseless boats began in Florida and ended in London broken a Guinness world record, which was 26 days thanks to the smart design.
The vessel is a research platform, University of Geneva (UNIGE), has a maximum speed of 14 knots and can accommodate up to nine crew members at a time, including scientists.
It has a variety of devices, some of them are prototypes developed by the University. Under the leadership of Professor Martin Beniston, a climatologist and Director of the Institute of environmental Sciences at UNIGE, the research team studied the key parameters of climate regulation, focusing on aerosols and phytoplankton.
Their goal is to improve understanding of the complex interactions between the ocean and atmosphere and the role of these interactions in climate change.
The PlanetSolar DeepWater expedition has allowed to conduct intensive testing in real conditions of a number of devices for the ocean and atmosphere, some of which are prototypes. Currently at the University of Geneva has accumulated a large number of physical, chemical and biological data that are beginning to undergo a thorough scientific review. Although the data have not been analyzed yet, we noticed some very interesting trends, he said.
The solar boat PlanetSolar has a length of about 35 meters and width of 23 meters, depending on the closure of the solar panel when it is docked or approaching bad weather.
With zero fuel requirements and zero carbon emission boat can continuously be on the sea for several months. Design PlanetSolar was designed by Craig Lums from New Zealand after several months of research to create optimal size and structure of the vessel with a double hull.
Engineers have optimized the collection and storage of energy, as well as aerodynamics, propulsion and choice of materials of construction. published
P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
