In this report, the
construction and working of a solar vehicle with minimum complexity in charging
the batteries is shown. The MATLAB simulation results of the electrical vehicle
are explained through the input taken from the solar panels and the output
speed of the vehicle along with the speed of response of the system with the
change in acceleration of the vehicle. The power from solar panels is tracked
using the perturb and observation method of algorithm and with the help of two
graphs i.e. I-V characteristics graph and P-V characteristics graph shows its
characteristics. The constant speed of the vehicle is shown using a speed vs
time graph. The speed of response of the system due to the practical change in
speeds of the vehicle in a usual run is shown by another speed vs time graph.
This report also contains the technical and physical details of all the equipment
that are used in the construction of the vehicle. The selection of both
electrical and mechanical components is one of the most important aspect of a
solar vehicle which is covered briefly in this report. The electrical equipment
in the vehicle includes solar panels, solar charge controller, BLDC motor,
motor controller, batteries and speed control while the mechanical apparatus
includes a simple steering system, braking system, suspension system, materials
to be used and the chain drive system. The most common practical problems and troubleshooting
are covered along with precautionary measures. This report is concentrated
primarily on the electrical theme and the mechanical systems are only briefed
which are mandatory in any vehicle. Some of the flexible changes in the vehicle
according to the individual requirements are briefed in the chain drive system.
The simplest of mechanical parts are used in the construction and their details
are furnished in the report. The aim of this report is to construct a solar
vehicle which is economical and simple in construction without any complexity
in charging the batteries.
please follow the post for complete updates of the vehicle.
