Abstract

The airship uses the solar radiation received by solar cells attached to the outside skin of the airship for providing the power for operating the propulsion drive. The solar cells are applied to the major part of the outer skin. The airship pref. is cigar shaped and filled with the He. The propulsion drive pref. comprises a screw propellers rotated via an electric motor. ADVANTAGE - Provides enviromentally friendly transport system.

Description

Das Solarluftschiff wäre dem techischen Gebiet der Luft­ schiffahrt zuzuordnen.The solar airship would be the technical field of air assign to shipping.

Der Antrieb bisher gebauter Luftschiffe erfolgt mittels herkömmlicher Motoren.Airships built to date are powered by conventional engines.

Es böte sich daher an, die große Fläche der Außenhaut eines zigarrenförmigen (aerodynamische Form) mit Helium gefüllten Luftschiffes mit Solarzellen zu bestücken.It would therefore make sense to use the large area of the outer skin cigar-shaped (aerodynamic shape) filled with helium Airship to be equipped with solar cells.

Die so gewonnene Solarenergie sollte über leistungsfähige Sammler einen Elektromotor antreiben, welcher mittels einer Luftschraube dem Luftschiff Vortrieb und Manövrierfähigkeit gestattet. Der Auf- und Abtrieb wäre wie in herkömmlichen Luftschiffen zu lösen.The solar energy obtained in this way should be powerful Collector drive an electric motor, which by means of a Propeller propelling and maneuverability allowed. The up and down would be like in conventional To solve airships.

Dabei sollte die Gesamtmasse der Solarzellen in etwa mit der Masse gefüllter Treibstofftanks bisheriger Luftschiffe übereinstimmen.The total mass of the solar cells should be about the mass of filled fuel tanks of previous airships to match.

Um die hohen Investitionen (Helium; Solarzellen) zu recht­ fertigen, sei hier auf die geringen Transport- und Unterhal­ tungskosten, sowie auf die Möglichkeit verwiesen, am Start und Landeplatz des Luftschiffes die nicht benötigte Solar­ energie in das öffentliche Netz einzuspeisen oder anderwei­ tig nutzbar zu machen. Hinzu kommt noch, daß die technische Entwicklung und die großtechnische Ausrichtung es der Indu­ strie in zunehmendem Maße möglich machen, immer effizientere und preiswertere Solarzellen zu produzieren.To the high investments (helium; solar cells) rightly manufacture, be here on the small transport and maintenance costs, as well as referring to the possibility at the start and landing place of the airship the unneeded solar feed energy into the public grid or otherwise make usable. In addition, the technical Development and the industrial orientation of the Indu make it increasingly possible, more and more efficient and to produce cheaper solar cells.

Von daher und im Hinblick auf die Gefährdung unserer Umwelt, sowie der Erschöpfung der natürlichen Ressourcen in abseh­ barer Zeit, hätte das Solarluftschiff vor allem beim Güter­ transport Perspektiven.Therefore and with regard to the danger to our environment, and the depletion of natural resources in the near future time, the solar airship would have a lot of goods transport perspectives.

Der Prototyp eines solchen Solarluftschiffes sollte zu­ nächst zu Versuchszwecken geringe räumliche Abmessungen aufweisen (Modellcharakter).The prototype of such a solar airship should be too small spatial dimensions next for experimental purposes have (model character).
