What it is about

You will learn the fundamentals and design principles of sustainable mobile propulsion. In the end you will be able to assess different propulsion concepts (internal combustion engines with sustainable fuels, battery propulsion, fuel cells) and make simple estimates of suitability, advantages and disadvantages, as well as sustainability aspects.

What you will be able to do

  • Classify the necessity of sustainable mobility
  • Evaluate the impacts on traditional vehicles and powertrains
  • Judge how propulsion concepts are implemented in different vehicle types
  • Compare the main mobile propulsion systems by advantages and disadvantages
  • Understand the fundamentals of reciprocating engines
  • Understand the fundamentals of electric drives (battery, inverter, electric motor)
  • Understand the fundamentals of propulsion with fuel cells
  • Classify the suitability of a propulsion system for a concrete application
  • Assess the influence of the energy carrier on the sustainability of a complete system
  • Critically discuss the basic relationships between energy, mobility and propulsion
  • Perform simple, effective rough estimates of key performance indicators of modern drives
