Hi everyone!
I am currently working on a research project for the college of engineering at my school and I am trying to calculate the power that a standard bike kit motor would provide when going up a certain incline compared to a person pedaling up this same incline. I know that I can find the average power output of these engines, but I have been using a set of equations to verify this and I need some general info.
Does anyone have any information or even logical guesses to the average speed that their bike with an attached motor will go up a hill with? I know I had seen somewhere that the average speed is around 25-30 mph but I am assuming that this value is for flat ground? Again, it doesn't need to be exact, I am just trying to get a grasp the concept. If you have the RPM value instead of speed that would be even better, otherwise I will convert it.
Thanks!
