Electric vehicles
What is Electric Vehicle
It is Vehicle Drive on electricity. Electric vehicles use electricity to charge
their batteries instead of using fossil fuels like petrol or diesel. Electric vehicles
are more efficient, and that combined with the electricity cost means that
charging an electric vehicle is cheaper than filling petrol or diesel for your
travel requirements.
Working
EVs receive energy from a charging station and store the energy in its
battery. The battery gives power to the motor which moves the wheels. Many
electrical parts work together in the background to make this motion happen.
Need
Electric vehicles use electricity to charge their batteries instead of using fossil
fuels like petrol or diesel. Electric vehicles are more efficient, and that
combined with the electricity cost means that charging an electric vehicle is
cheaper than filling petrol or diesel for your travel requirements.
Construction
It consists of battery, motor controller, motor which is connected to the
transmission system. Here, battery is the energy source which is charged by
taking electric current from the grid (In Solar power electric vehicle, Battery is
charged with the use of solar pv panel which is attached on the roof of the
vehicle).
Motor
The main function of motor is to convert supplied electric Energy current in to
mechanical energy. Brushless DC motor (BLDC) have been much focused for
many motor Manufacturers. These are more effective in term of System Cost,
size, higher in efficiency, excellent controllability and Also power saving than
other motor. It has only two basic Main parts Rotor and stator. The rotor is
rotating part which Carry permanent magnet and stator is stationary part and
Containing stator winding. The structure of stator is similar To the induction
motor. It is made up of steel lamination with Axially cut for winding.
Motor controller
In most of the electric vehicle, Brushless DC motor is used Which is better than
brushed DC motor, permanent magnet DC motor. Brushless DC motor does not
have brush and Commutator, the electric vehicle which uses brushless DC
Motor has to use motor controller which helps to control Various properties of
motor to take sufficient current andvoltage applied to motor. When
accelerating pedal is press, This linked variable resistor type controller gives
signal to The motor controller to adjust speed as per our needs. The Motor
controller has no power when vehicle is at rest Position.
Battery
The main function of battery is to store electric energy. Most Hybrid and
electric vehicle used lithium ion batteries. This Storage system is usually
essential for hybrid electric vehicle, Plug in hybrid electric vehicle and all types
of electric Vehicles. Due to advancing technologies, most of automobile
Manufacturer uses rechargeable batteries. The different type Of batteries
along with their characteristics are shown in Table.
Disadvantages
1. It is quite expensive.
2. It required more time to charge the battery.
3. Not for long range traveling because availability of less number of
electric power charging station.
Hybrid vehicles
What is Hybrid vehicles ?
A hybrid vehicle is one that uses two or more distinct types of power, such as
submarines that use diesel when surfaced and batteries when submerged.
Other means to store energy include pressurized fluid in hydraulic hybrid.
Need
A hybrid-electric produces lower tailpipe emissions than a comparably sized
gasoline car since the hybrid’s gasoline engine is usually smaller than that of a
gasoline-powered vehicle. If the engine is not used to drive the car directly, it
can be geared to run at maximum efficiency, further improving fuel economy.
Working
Hybrid electric vehicles are powered by an internal combustion engine and one
or more electric motors, which uses energy stored in batteries. A hybrid
electric vehicle cannot be plugged in to charge the battery. Instead, the battery
is charged through regenerative braking and by the internal combustion
engine.
Construction
Hybrid car use internal combustion engines like the normal car but with the
inclusion of an electric motor. These two power trains work together to propel
the car, which eventually helps in saving fuel. The most notable advantage of
hybrid technology is that it reduces the gasoline used in the car.
Disadvantages
1. Lower speed as compared to other.
2. More expensive.
3. Expensive to replacing the battery.
4. Poor handling.
