Fabrication of Prototype Model ofInfrared Sensor Based Regenerative Braking System Using Electromagnetic Clutch
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
The objective of this paper is to stored the kinetic energy dissipated in the brakes to accelerate the vehicle. This project is based on prototype model of Regenerative braking system using electromagnetic clutch. Regenerative braking results in an increase in energy output for a given energy input to a vehicle, the efficiency is improved. The amount of work done by the engine of the vehicle is reduced, in turn reducing the amount of prime energy required to propel the vehicle. In order for a regenerative braking system to be cost effective the prime energy saved over a specified lifetime must offset the initial cost, size and weight penalties of the system. The energy storage unit must be compact, durable and capable of handling high power levels efficiently. The energy can be directly provided to dynamo itself to generate current and will be displayed on the Ammeter installed in the set up. This set up also consists of an InfraredSensor which helps to prevent the frequency of accidents increasing due to inefficient braking system and therefore can be considerably avoided using IR sensors. The vehicle instantly stops as any object appears in front of it where IR Sensors are installed.
