Small energy knowledge: four main points of low carbon automobile

The first batch of solar battery cars on the South China Sea Islands have been officially used on Yongxing island in Xisha since August 2008 They have never been stopped or charged for more than a year The solar panel on the roof can convert the received sunlight into electric energy and store it for backup People's research on low-carbon technology of automobile can be said to be multifarious Although not all of them have the strength of extensive application at present, it brings a broader imagination and exploration space for the future development of automobile ① a solar panel is set on the top of the car on the solar roof to convert the light energy into electric energy for the use of the car The common design is to set a solar cell group under the glass of the car skylight, which is connected with the control units in the car These control units control the air conditioning, lighting, vehicle TV and other systems in the car At the same time, the solar battery pack is connected to the battery and igniter in the vehicle When the sun shines on the roof, the solar cell under the sunroof begins to absorb heat energy, which is converted into electric energy after treatment to supply electricity for the car The electric energy generated by the solar roof can be used for the operation of the air conditioner in the car to reduce the temperature in the car, provide energy for the lighting system, or provide energy for the electrical system in the car ② solar windows are simply to make good use of windows to provide kinetic energy for cars with the help of solar energy At present, some companies are developing new technologies to spray the micro silicon particles on the glass directly, so that it can produce a film that can absorb the solar radiation to make electricity, and provide kinetic energy for the car ③ in the United States, some research institutions are developing a kind of tire reinforcement material with plant extract as the main raw material The new material can not only improve the performance of tire, but also reduce the energy consumption of vehicle It is said that the main component of the tire reinforcement material is microcrystalline cellulose, which is mainly extracted from trees and other plants, and is a pure natural cellulose depolymerization product Compared with the traditional tire with other reinforced materials, the tire with new reinforced materials has the advantages of low manufacturing cost, strong traction on wet and frozen roads and good heat dissipation in hot environment What's more, it can also reduce the resistance of the tire in driving, making the vehicle more energy-saving ④ at present, some scientific research institutions have successfully developed environmental protection plastic materials made of 20% wheat straw for interior decoration Ford company will adopt this environmental protection technology for interior decoration of new cars, which will help to reduce plastic raw materials extracted from oil, reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and environmental protection plastic materials have better durability and lighter weight.
