Can a vfd be run any higher than 60hz?

Yes, most VFDs can run faster than the input power frequency so you can run a motor to 60Hz with a 50Hz power source. Just be aware that as speed increases, so will the current. Also be aware that a motor is rated to run a specific rpm and running faster may cause motor bearing failure after a short time.


When on a sailboat under power of a small motor do you lash the tiller and steer by motor or keep the motor straight and steer by tiller?

This is a WAG from a power boater, not a sailboater, but...I think there are two things to consider. (assuming you don't have remote controls for your kicker) First, how accessible is the outboard? If the outboard is so far aft of the cockpit that you can't reach the tiller (or wheel) then you will need to be with the engine for forward/reverse control and speed control. On the other hand, if your outboard is close enough to the rudder control to use it, the rudder has much greater surface area and you would have more steering control using the rudder. Just an educated guess. Good luck. From a sailor- On my boat I steer by rudder and leave the motor amidships for normal motoring But the outboard, with its directional thrust, is very handy when in tight quarters especially at low speeds when the rudder is less effective. I have an extension for the motor control handle to make it easily accessible from the cockpit.


Will running a motor backwards generate power?

No. Motors can be run in either direction, clockwise or counter clockwise. However, mechanically spinning an electric motor will generate electric power.


A dc motor running on a potential difference of 25V draws 9.8A It lifts a load of 48lb 12ft?

A dc motor running on a potential difference of 25 volts draws 9.8 A. It lifts a load of 48 pounds 12 feet in 5.5 seconds. How much work does the motor do? How much power does it deliver? How much poser does it consume? What is its efficiency?


How can you calculate current draw for a 3 phase 2.2kw motor running at 20Hz?

To calculate the current draw of a 3-phase 2.2 kW motor running at 20 Hz, you can use the formula: [ I = \frac{P}{\sqrt{3} \times V \times \text{PF}} ] Where ( I ) is the current in amperes, ( P ) is the power in watts (2200 W), ( V ) is the line voltage, and PF is the power factor (typically around 0.8 for motors). You'll need to know the operating voltage and the power factor to compute the current accurately. If the motor's efficiency and power factor at 20 Hz are not specified, you may need to estimate or refer to the motor's datasheet for those values.

Evinrude 40hp outboard motor buzzes and loses power?

This sounds like your engine warning system is trying to alert you to a cooling problem. Overly high running temperatures are deadly to an outboard, and can lead to very expensive repair costs. Check to see that the thermostat is operating properly, and that the engine is running in an acceptable heat range.


What is a sailboat with an outboard motor called?

A sailboat with an outboard motor is commonly referred to as a "motor sailer." This type of vessel is designed to be propelled by sails for wind navigation, but it also has an outboard motor to provide additional power when needed, such as in calm conditions or for maneuvering in tight spaces. Motor sailers combine the benefits of both sailing and motor boating, making them versatile for various conditions.
