Project presentation on Solar car modification
1. Energy from the sun 2. The power producing mechanism 3. The roof mounting structure 4. Electrical inverter 5. Electrical system 6. Power transmission
COMPONENT OF SOLAR CAR • SOLAR PANEL • BODY AND CHASSIS • MECHANICAL SYSTEM • DRIVE TRAIN • ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
SOLAR CELLS • A solar cell converts solar energy to electrical energy • Photons in sunlight provide the energy that moves electrons from one layer of a semi-conducting metallic wafer to another • The movement of the electrons creates a current. • silicon and gallium arsenide cellare used
BODY & CHASSIS • The main goals in designing the body are to minimize the aerodynamic drag • Minimize weight, and maximize safety.
CHASSIS TYPES :- • SPACE FRAME • SEMI-MONOCOQUE OR CARBON BEAM • MONOCOQUE
CHASSIS SYSTEM • A space frame uses a welded or bonded tube structure to support the loads and the body • The semi-monocoque or carbon beam chassis uses composite beams and bulkheads to support the loads and is integrated into a non-load bearing composite belly pan. • A monocoque chassis uses the body structure to support the loads.
MECHANICAL SYSTEM Designed to minimize friction and weight. INCLUDES: • Suspension:- Independent spring Wishbone type • Axle • Tyre & Wheels
STEERING SYSTEM FUNCTION:- To meet turning radius & handling requirements. TYPES :- Bar & linkage steering STEERING SYSTEM
DRIVE TRAIN • Motor • Drive chain • Drive gear Basic types of transmissions used in solar cars. 1.Single reduction direct drive 2.Variable ratio belt drive 3.Hub motor
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM • Batteries • Motor & Controller • Lightening Systems
BATTERY • Lead-Acid • Nickel-Metal Hydrid (NiMH) • Nickel-Cadmium (NiCad) • Lithium Ion • Lithium Polymer
