摘要

This study presents the design and development of an electric-powered workboat for application in a hydro-floating solar hybrid system, with the objective of supporting the operation and maintenance of such systems through efficient and environmentally friendly transportation. The research addresses key design challenges, including stability, maneuverability, and the integration of renewable energy sources. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations were employed to analyze resistance, wave patterns, and effective power, while Maxsurf software was used to evaluate vessel stability. The results indicate that the electric-powered workboat achieves a maximum speed of 21 km/h and demonstrates optimal energy efficiency at operating speeds of 18–19 km/h. In addition, assessments of noise levels, wave patterns, and environmental performance were conducted within the context of the Hydro-Floating Solar Hybrid System at Sirindhorn Dam. The findings confirm the feasibility and effectiveness of electric-powered workboats utilizing renewable energy sources, highlighting their potential contribution to sustainable waterway transportation infrastructure.
