SOLAR CAR SYSTEM
5
HOW A SOLAR CAR WORKS
6
1. Energy from the sun 2. The power producing mechanism 3. The roof mounting structure 4. Electrical inverter 5. Electrical system 6. Power transmission

PHOTOVOLTAIC ENERGY
10
SOLAR CELLS A solar cell converts solar energy to electrical energy
Photons in sunlight provide the energy that moves electrons from one layer of a semi-conducting metallic wafer to another The movement of the electrons creates a current. silicon and gallium arsenide cell are used

BODY & CHASSIS
14
BODY & CHASSIS The main goals in designing the body are to minimize the aerodynamic drag Minimize weight, and maximize safety.
15
CHASSIS TYPES :- SPACE FRAME SEMI-MONOCOQUE OR CARBON BEAM MONOCOQUE
16
CHASSIS SYSTEM A space frame uses a welded or bonded tube structure to support the loads and the body The semi-monocoque or carbon beam chassis uses composite beams and bulkheads to support the loads and is integrated into a non-load bearing composite belly pan. A monocoque chassis uses the body structure to support the loads.
17
MECHANICAL SYSTEM
18
MECHANICAL SYSTEM Designed to minimize friction and weight. INCLUDES:
Suspension:- Independent spring Wishbone type Axle Tyre & Wheels
19
STEERING SYSTEM FUNCTION:-
To meet turning radius & handling requirements. TYPES :- Bar & linkage steering STEERING SYSTEM
