SMART HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE
ABSTARCT :
Smart Hybrid Electric Vehicles (S-HEV) provide large potential to save fuel consumption and reduce pollutant emission.
An S-HEV is a vehicle driven by more than one power source, and usually refers to a combination of internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric motor (EM).
EXISTING SYSTEM :
An Electric vehicle is an automobile that is propelled by one or more electric motors, using electrical energy stored in energy storage device.
The primary components are motor, controller, power source, and transmission
DISADVANTAGE :
High Initial Cost- Many times that of conventional vehicles.
Recharging takes much longer time than refueling gasoline- lack of charging infrastructure.
Battery pack takes space and weight of the vehicle which otherwise is available to the people
PROPOSED SYSTEM :
The Smart Hybrid Electric Vehicle has two modes, Fuel mode i.e. Internal Combustion engine mode and Electric mode. The charging of battery is done in two ways.
One is by solar panel and another is by 220V AC supply. During day time while running or in rest position, the solar panel on the top of the car charges the battery.
During night time, 220V AC supply can be provided to charge the battery. The initially starts in Fuel mode. In fuel mode, the IC engine is connected to the front wheel. The fuel may be a petrol or diesel or LPG.
ADVANTAGE :
Environment friendly
Financial benefits
Less dependence on fossil fuels
Regenerative braking system
Built from lighter materials
