Water Bowser chassis
Description
There are many types of agricultural water bowsers on the market, which vary in geometry
and size. However, in all such bowsers there are “unused spaces” between the bottom of the tank and
the axle. The objective of this research was to design an agricultural water bowser with improved
capacity by exploiting the “unused spaces”. This would allow a sufficient amount of water to be
supplied to wide areas in a short time. Each concept of agricultural water bowser was generated as
an integrated chassis water tank to be hitched to a tractor, and the best concept was chosen using
a multi-criteria decision-making methodology (house of quality matrix and Pugh selection matrix).
The selected design consisted of an U-shaped angle bent bottom sheet welded to a top circular
sheet.
