Electric Vehicle - A Future Generation Technology

Electric vehicle


Electrical vehicle is a new technology transportation system which is run on electric power. In electric vehicle, Electric batteries used against engine.
The most important advantage of Electric vehicle is pollution free and Low running cost due to absence of fuel. There are no gear system in electric vehicle so this vehicle are user friendly for driving.
In electric vehicle, electric motor used for propulsion drive. So the torque are less than fuel engine vehicle.

Major Components of Electric vehicle

1. Battery pack
2. Electric Motor
3. Transmission
4. Controller/ Converter

1. Battery

Mostly Lithium- Ion type battery used in electric vehicle due it's certain advantages. Number of batteries are connected in series or parallel for maintain Current and voltage level. 
Batteries changed by electric  power supply from charging stations and somewhere it's charged by regenerative braking of a vehicle.

2. Electric Motor

Brushless DC motor and Induction motor are used to drive the electric vehicles. In brushless DC motor, brushes are not used so the motor run as sparkless.
Electric motor connect with transmission system of electric vehicle for driving the shaft. The characteristics of brushless DC motor are similar to AC motor so this motor are more efficient.

3.Transmission System

In transmission system, Gearbox used for propulsion the electric vehicle. It also provide regenerative braking during coasting and braking. In this condition, the power to batteries from motor.

4. Controller/Converter

The function of controlling in electric vehicle are to the control the all parameters like speed, voltage, current, torque, charging system, display and many other. The main function of the controller are to control fed to motor and reverse from transmission.

Types of Electric vehicles

There three types of electric vehicle according to their energy source.

1. Hybrid Electric Vehicle
2. Plug in Hybrid electric vehicle
3. Battery Electric Vehicle

1. Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Hybrid electric vehicle

In Hybrid Electric Vehicle, the energy powered by Fuel engine and electricity. Here Gas Engine Or diesel engine are used to drive the motor. Battery charging by during regenerative braking of motor. Here no any external source used for charging the batteries.

2. Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Plug in hybrid electric vehicle

In plug in hybrid electric vehicle,  Battery power supply and combustion engine power supply are separated. Battery charged by external electric power supply through charging stations. Combustion engine power used at the time of maximum demand of torque otherwise vehicle run on battery power supply.

3 Battery Electric Vehicle

Battery electric vehicle

In Battery Electric Vehicle, there is only Battery power supply used for drive the vehicle. It is pure electric vehicle which is run on only battery and motor. Battery charged by charging stations and also during regenerative braking. The torque of this vehicle is low compared with other electric vehicles.

In future, It is mandatory to use of electric vehicle due to fossil fuel. Now many industries research to develop high efficient electric vehicle with minimum cost. Also Solar panel will one more parameter should be added in future in the electric vehicle for efficient charging.

Solar Energy System- working of solar energy System

What is solar energy System? Solar energy system is the technology for generating electricity Ecofriendly. It convert s solar rays to photovoltaic energy and it again convert in electrical energy. There are many advantages and applications of solar energy system. It is purely zero percent pollution source which not create any defected parameter to earth. Major components of solar energy project are 1. Solar panel 2. Charge controller 3. Battery 4. Load Solar panel Solar energy system consist solar panels which includes solar cell, solar array, solar modules. If we connect number of solar cells then it's called a solar array, solar modules are from number of solar array and solar panel are are from number of solar modules. Solar panels consist number of layers and it generate photovoltaic energy from sun rays and it convert in DC power supply. Charge Controller The function of charge controller in Solar energy system are same as inverter. It converts AC power as well as DC power. Th...

What is LED and construction of LED

Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a source of light that should be used worldwide and number of applications of LED due to it's properties and performance. In this section we learn about What is LED, Function of LED, construction of LED, How LED works, Advantages of LED, Disadvantages of LED, Application of LED. What is Light Emitting Diode (LED)? LED is special type of diode. It is an electric component that emits light when the electric current flows through it. When current passes through the LED, the electrons recombine with holes emitting light in the process. The characteristics of LED similar as the p-n junction diode that means that an LED allows the flow of current in its forward direction while it blocks the flow in the reverse direction. Construction of LED The semiconductor material used in LED is Gallium Arsenide (GaAs), Gallium Phosphide (GaP) or Gallium Arsenide Phosphide (GaAsP). Any of the above mentioned compounds can be used for the construction of LED, but the colou...

What is PLC - Block Diagram of PLC, PLC Programming

What is PLC-  Block Diagram of PLC, PLC Programming What is PLC? A Programmable Logic Controller is an industrial digital computer which has regulate, control the industrial operations such as assembly lines, robotic devices or any other industrial process. PLC has high reliability, high accuracy, process fault diagnosis. First PLC were  developed in the automobile manufacturing industry to provide flexible, rugged and easily programmable controllers to replace hard wired relay logic  systems. Since then, they have been widely adopted as high reliability automation controllers. PLC programming language focused on logic and switching operations. It was more user friendly than computers using Ladder Logic programming languages. PLC also permitted for its operation to be monitored. Black Diagram of PLC A programmable logic controller consists of 1. Central Processing Unit (CPU)       CPU  interprets inputs and executes the control program stored in memory...
