AN OVERVIEW AND SIMULATION OF WIND ENERGY BASED ELECTRIC VEHICLE

This paper describes the modeling, analysis, and simulation of application of wind energy in automobiles. After many years research of electric vehicle industry is showing signs of life. Compared with diesel and petrol vehicles, electric vehicle produce less noise and less atmospheric pollution. Statistics proves that electric vehicle life is much longer and maintenance is much less than that of any other form of mechanically propelled road vehicle. In this paper discussion have been done about the effective use of wind energy to run the battery operatedelectric vehicles.Electric vehicle Motor performance is simulated in Mat lab/Simulink and the Simulation results are to evaluate the performance of the system.
