A Solar car aerodynamic design with solar cells on the surface using CAD simulation software.

At the nexus of automotive engineering and cutting-edge technology, creative solutions have developed in an era characterised by growing concerns about sustainability and efficiency. Creating aerodynamically efficient, solar-powered racing cars is the main goal of this project, which aims to achieve environmentally responsible performance. The initiative intends to push the limits of racing vehicle design by fusing renewable energy use with aerodynamic concepts. Maximising aerodynamic performance and smoothly integrating solar cells onto the vehicle's surface are the main goals. In order to minimise drag and improve racetrack efficiency, we investigate shape, airflow dynamics, and downforce through rigorous design and simulation utilising Computer-Aided Design (CAD) technologies. The car's exterior is covered in strategically positioned solar panels that gather sunlight and transform it into electrical energy for driving.Our mission is to promote a paradigm change in the racing sector towards sustainability, where renewable energy sources and the sound of engines coexist in harmony. Through CAD simulations, we imagine a comprehensive 3D model that showcases solar technology integration and aerodynamic capabilities. This model enables thorough analysis and improvement of design components, such as the best location for solar panels and aerodynamic fine-tuning. The vehicle's streamlined shape, which reduces drag and air resistance, improves speed and range and makes it easier for it to slice through the air. This initiative, which uses cuttingedge technology to reimagine vehicle design, is a major step towards sustainable racing.
