Abstract:
Because of the role of emissions to global warming, complex petrol engine design, and also body
controls, vehicle technology is undergoing a revolution in the design of its electrical mechanical
system. Improved battery technology, a sustainable power source for the battery, and styling
methods of production and self-charging method are three key identifiable categories of work in
the creation of the new electric car. The development of vehicles has been extremely rapid in
recent years, in all aspects, from body design to power usage, but beyond that, the development
in energy consumption is not like its impact. And nowadays, car technology has progressed to
totally in electrification and vehicle autonomous. The aim of this work is to design and develop
medium duty vehicle, also referred to as an electric drive vehicle, uses one electric motors or
traction motors for propulsion and vehicles use self-generating power to drive the vehicle from
power sources. However, the current electric vehicle raise a question in effectiveness of an
electric vehicle when traveling 60-100 miles on a single charge: it is still difficult to travel great
distances by electric vehicle from a practical standpoint. Furthermore, the recharging time of an
electric car is substantially longer, and finding a charging station is sometimes difficult. So to
overcome this problem up to certain extent this research offers self-power generating electric
vehicle mechanism. In this self-powered system the author has applied the concept of energy
cycle from the electrical to mechanical and back to electrical. The system uses a battery charge
by using alternator. To do this the alternator which is used for charging battery’s is assemble in
propeller shaft. Here the propeller shaft is used as rotor and rotates freely, the stator which
encloses the shaft and/or rotor is hanged up in correct position in the assembly of the chassis of
the vehicle body in such manner that this eco-friendly technology is developed.
