An Overview of Solar-Powered Electric Vehicle Speed Control

Abstract

The 750 W BLDC center point engine powers the isolated Electric Solar Vehicle. Undergraduate students at KIIT University from a variety of academic disciplines collaborated to design and build a premium, affordable, and well-protected electric solar-powered car. These days, suppliers of standard resources like coal, fuel, and so forth are finding it difficult to meet the growing demand. Therefore, it is crucial to do additional research on the regular asset of vitality and power in order to satisfy this interest. As a result, sunshine is now considered a source of energy that is used in many daily applications. During the day, power is generated by harnessing the power of the sun. We plan to use this invention to create a solar-powered, energy-controlled vehicle for our project. The sun powered board is the main component that needs to be assembled for a solar-powered vehicle. A portion of the sun's energy is captured by the solar-powered cells and stored in the vehicle's batteries. Control trackers switch the energy collected from the sun-oriented cluster to the optimal framework voltage before that happens so that the batteries and engine can make use of it. The energy is stored in the batteries and can be used by the engine and engine controller to move the car. Two battery arrangements will be used: one will receive electrical energy from the board to power the engine, and the other will serve as a backup power source to provide other electrical devices in the car with the necessary capacity. For this purpose, a microprocessor can be used, which, upon detecting that another battery is empty or not providing enough power to run the engine, can switch to the fully charged battery. Again, we used all of the hardware to address the voltage fluctuation issue caused by the sun, earth, clouds, and other development. For this reason, we used a transistor in conjunction with a diode, a transfer circuit, and a voltage comparator. After analyzing the voltage of the battery and the sun-oriented board, the comparator provides a greater voltage to the transistor to start the hand-off process, which supplies the car with the necessary and steady voltage. Regardless, once all of this is done, the engine controller modifies the amount of energy flowing to the engine so that it matches the throttle. That energy is put to use by the engine to turn the wheels. Our initial goal is to implement our ideas into a fundamental model. Later, with the help of this model, we can expand on our future efforts to build a continuous electric car powered by the sun.
