N2  - A mobile vehicle powered by water was engineered and built by the Agricultural and Biological Engineering Department at Purdue University. This pressurised water system was designed to operate on a modified greens mower. All existing oil hydraulic components were replaced by current industrial water hydraulic components. Water hydraulic pressure compensated flow control components of the individual systems had to be inserted for performance as a variable displacement pump was not available. Water power was used to power all circuits including; steering, propulsion, reel drives and reel lifts. Testing has shown that the machine is fully functional and operates with similar characteristics at approximately 4.8 km/h. <p />
