Abstract

Electric Solar car is an electric vehicle powered completely or significantly by direct solar energy using the photovoltaic (PV) cells. The Analysis and understanding of Electrical and PV systems seems to be highly intuitive for fabrication of successful design of prototype. The main focus of our project is to design and analysis an effective braking system for electric solar car. A hydraulic disc brake system is design with three disc plates. Two plates are mounted in the front axle and one in the rear axle assisting to stop the vehicle instantly after applying the brake. Tandem master cylinder is used to apply hydraulic pressure which is transferred to the wheel units through two separate circuits. Report includes complete theory and procedure adopted for selecting the parameters, materials and designing of a brake system. Report is concluded with some Innovative ideas and future scope
