ABSTRACT

Construction of a potable electric operated motor vehicle for long Volvo Bus. In this project involves the knowledge of mechanical engineering workshop technology and engineering material science and strength.

This was exactly what we were taught. We contracted the electric car with the actual dimension of long Volvo bus(Ml-) got from the catalogue and we enlarged the scale by 1: 8mm. aluminum cord was used in the construction of the vehicle body because of its light weight and it is paraded with marking sole, which absorbs  heat entering from outside into the vehicle due to excess heat or sum on the aluminum. In the construction of electric car, he step are as follows:

1.         The fabrication drawing, taking in consideration the various diversion of the component that make up the electric car and the type of materials to be used.

2.         The construction of the material was carried out in the workshop with the help of the working tools and finally assembling the components.

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this project is to help the reader to under standard FEW thing about electric car. Those specialist who have slayer long in electric vehicle design recognize this alternative type of transportation as a challenge to commanding importance to contemporary mankind.

The construction of electric car could achiever the speed and acceleration of those of internal combustion engine.

If being build in small qualities. Electric car be constructed of corrosion proof material to provide a far long life.

They do not have the universality of the gasoline powered vehicle. It should be recharged after a shoot period of time or after a trip. It should also have its charging cord connected to the outlet convenient for it and the battery rejuvenated(charged) for the vehicle’s next excursion.

This procedure will minimize the daily effective range, which in a9hour period can now approach 81mites of urban during.

This figure comes into perspective, when it is realized that 50% of the gas line powered car in over sea travel less than 28 miles per day and that 54% of the trips are under 5 miles.

Such usage is already efficiently attained by a good electric car.

In a developing and growing countries here are more effective electric car and fabricating batteries with greater energy storage per unit of weight.
