IDEA #3I7917 Multi- Fuel Sources Vehicle Based On Electro, Gas And Photovoltaic Consumption

MULTI(cid:2)(cid:2) FUEL SOURCES VEHICLE BASED OONN ELECTRO,, GAS AND PHOTOVOLTAIC CONSUMPTION APPLIED RESEARCH • ENERGYAND ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH Description Among existing transportation means automobiles and cars are given the most interest as over 70% atmosphere pollution is being the result of cars using liquid fuel. The increasing number of such cars causes bigger ecological pollution natu(cid:2) ral resources exhaustion, namely oil. Wide use of transport vehicles based on electrical draught force and gas engines could be the alternative to automobile transport. However classification niche of such transport types as well as accumulation type electrical transport is still empty. But it has got objective advantages – harmful emissions, lower operational costs, adjusting 24 hour load charts, statis(cid:2) tical adequacy of daily inter(cid:2)charging run of 80(cid:2)100 km in city conditions. Calculations show that each million inhabitants in big cities get service in service centers for 100 thousand cars. Their functions could be delegated onto electro(cid:2)gas automobiles. Increased amount of generated electricity for the electrocycles could be compensated by utilizing solar energy. The economy of organic fuel use will make 100 million liters (80 thousand tons) per year. Innovative Aspects and Main Advantages The innovation features of multi(cid:2) fuel sources vehicles are being as follows: • developing methods for transport complex monitoring opti(cid:2) mization; • high(cid:2)efficient system for accumulation module charging based on renewable power; • new construction of gasification chamber that could increase multi(cid:2) fuel sources vehicle lifetime period, (cid:2)reliability and haulage distance. • CO2 content in emissions will not exceed 0,2%. Positive effect of multi(cid:2) fuel sources vehicle use – decreasing operational costs (by 5(cid:2)6 times) comparing to traditional petrol based transport of the same class; almost zero harmful emissions. The main advantage is in favor of multi(cid:2) fuel sources vehicle ecologically friendly features. Area ooff Application The vehicle will be effectively used in transport for city passen(cid:2) ger transportation purposes and small cargo transportation. multi(cid:2) fuel sources vehicle can be used by private consumers and different city infrastructures, like post service, ambulance, municipal, gas, power and telephone service and mainte(cid:2) nance, and also be used in agriculture and forestry.
