DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF SAP CAR

Mechanical Engineering

2nd National Conference on Recent Trends & Innovations in Mechanical Engineering

Since last 2-3 decades the average temperature of earth increased by 3-40C because of the green house effect. Due to increase in the fuel prices and continuously depletion of natural recourses for the fuels causes fuel crises in the modern society. Due to which demand of development of newly energy efficient vehicles increases. The hybrid technology fulfils this requirement by incorporating various combinations of bio-fuels and also by combinations of highly efficient electric drive systems. Along with the same it reduces the emission and cut the fuel cost. This project illustrates an implementation of hybrid technology on a small scale. Project aims at improving the mileage of the car using simple mild parallel hybrid technology with combination of electric motor drive and the petrol engine drive. We have used the straight open chassis design. The results show that alone a petrol engine gives best 35Km/lit, alone a electric motor gives 5 kms on full battery charge. The combination of above two gives 40Kms. The battery charging in our sap car is done in three different ways which provides easy fast and less wall socket usage to charge the battery we are using solar panel, wind turbine, and the battery even charges when the engine is in the motion
