Wind powered car

introduction

Wind is one of the prominent sources of renewable energy.

The wind powered car that converts wind power to electric energy which in turn moves the vehicle

concept

A wind-powered car converts wind power into electric energy, thereby helping the car to move forward

there’s an intake valve seated on the roof to amass all the wind needed to power the car.

An alternator connects to the intake valve which converts the kinetic energy to electrical energy.

This electrical energy is connected to a DC battery pack which is the source of power to a controller.

This controller converts the DC voltage to AC three phase voltage with the help of power diodes.

history

InVentus Ventomobile, the first wind-powered car was designed by students of University of Stuttgart in August 2008

THE FIRST CAR RACE IS IN September 7, 2008 in the Netherlands

WORKING PRINCIPLE

WHEN THE CAR RUN To get the most out of the smallest surface we have to use a turbine with a large contact surface. Such turbine will have only one active side.

it would be better to bend the airstream onto the active area like this:

This ornament increases the efficiency of the wind turbine but it also allows us to "hide" the passenger in the turbine translating a large percentage of aerodynamic drag back onto the drive train.

It would make the vehicle look something like this:

wind energy processing mechanics in wind powered card wind turbines and valves are used also to harness the wind.

These wind turbines are valves are placed in such position in the cars that they can start moving

The unusual wind-powered car hit a top speed 2.86 times faster than the wind during one recent run,

The function of valves is to absorb the wind which is needed to power the car. Along valves an alternator is connected which convert the kinetic energy into electric energy

USEIt can use as a alternate power source of carIt can use in wind-zone as power for drive the

car

The ever-intensifying drive to discover clean, renewable energy technologies has in recent years led to developments beyond the lab and the drawing room and into the real world.

that wind farms now produce 3.2% of the energy used in the US, 9% in Germany, 17% in Portugal and an astounding 26% in Denmark.

Advantages of Wind Power car

Wind Energy as Green as Can Be so no pollution

Free Power, ForeverWind Power Can Go Anywhere so need

not cary any other thingReusable so it will never end. Once the wind turbine is built the energy it

produces does not cause green house gases or other pollutants

Disadvantages of Wind Power The strength of the wind is not constant and it varies

from zero to storm force. This means that wind turbines do not produce the same amount of electricity all the time. There will be times when they produce no electricity at all

 Many people feel that the countryside should be left untouched, without these large structures being built. The landscape should left in its natural form for everyone to enjoy.

Wind turbines are noisy. Each one can generate the same level of noise as a family car travelling at 70 mph.

Many people see large wind turbines as unsightly structures and not pleasant or interesting to look at. They disfigure the countryside and are generally ugly.

Conclusionand here wind act as a alternative fuel.

Hence this car use wind power as the fuel and its economical and it is also an ECO FRIENDLY car it will not spoil the environment and if this become popular and we can use this means the will be a better environment. This can be used in sports car so we save our environment. As per the quote SAVE OIL SAVE INDIA, we can also save india by saving fuel by the help of this wind power car
