ABSTRACT:
This project focuses on addressing the limitations of traditional electric bikes, particularly their low running distance per charge, by optimizing the design and performance of electric vehicles. Conventional electric bikes often rely on non-renewable energy sources and have been criticized for their limited range, leading to reduced consumer adoption. To tackle this issue, the project uses advanced design and analysis tools such as CATIA and ANSYS to create a model that is rigorously tested for strength, stiffness, durability, and rider comfort. The study incorporates design modifications, including optimizing the vehicle’s aerodynamic performance through nozzle arrangement at the front face, aiming to enhance efficiency and increase the vehicle’s range on a single charge. This optimization process is grounded in quantitative performance predictions, which are crucial for improving the overall technological aspects of the vehicle and ensuring its practical viability as an eco-friendly alternative.
Aim:
The aim of this project is to optimize the design and performance of an electric bike to improve its running efficiency and extend the distance it can travel on a single charge, while ensuring rider comfort and vehicle durability. The project focuses on utilizing design and analysis tools such as CATIA and ANSYS to enhance the vehicle’s structural integrity, aerodynamics, and overall performance through strategic modifications like nozzle arrangement, ultimately making the electric bike a more viable and eco-friendly transportation option.
objective:
The objective of this project is to improve the performance and efficiency of an electric bike by addressing key factors such as running distance, strength, and rider comfort. This involves designing and analyzing the vehicle using CATIA and ANSYS software to ensure structural integrity, stiffness, and durability. The project also focuses on optimizing the vehicle’s aerodynamics through modifications like nozzle arrangements at the front, aiming to reduce energy consumption and enhance the bike’s overall performance. Additionally, the design will be evaluated to ensure the comfort and safety of both the rider and the pillion rider.
