subject: Volvos New Electric Car Act As A Rechargeable Battery [print this page] According to foreign media reports, hybrid and electric car manufacturers facing one of the biggest problem is the bulky design of the car battery to increase the weight and volume. Currently, Volvo is developing an dell inspiron 1420 battery electric car to solve this problem, they took the form of the whole body as a rechargeable battery.
Like other electric vehicles, the driver can this night before the Volvo plug in the power rechargeable electric vehicles, in addition, this car has a futuristic color can also be stored in the process of moving the brake energy. Volvo electric car R & D project will last 3 years in early 2010 in the Volvo, and Imperial College London, the other seven European research institutes started. Currently, the Imperial College is developing a carbon fiber and polymer resin composite materials, able to exceed the speed of conventional batteries store more energy.
This material is especially strong and easy to bend, can be used to make car body panels. Volvo said that if using this new material to replace steel body panels, electric cars can reduce the weight of up dell vostro 1400 battery to 15%. Currently, scientists are able to store more energy research and development of composite materials, while looking for ways to achieve industrial-scale production. Only in the final phase of this project, researchers will install the batteries for the car.
Volvo Cars R & D Engineer Pyle Materials Center Glenn Ivar Seiler said: We play the role of the contribution and how to integrate this technology in the future, the relevant professional knowledge, while the cost for the technology and user-friendly propose a series of advantages and disadvantages in terms of ideas.
Initially, vehicle spare tire used to put the groove will be converted into a composite battery. Glenn Seiler, said: This is a relatively large structure, easy to replace. Although not yet large enough to provide electricity for the whole vehicle level, but also sufficient to shut down and start the engine, for example, to catch up with the traffic lights time. Almost every day I hear about how to use or further develop the technology of new ideas. It has a huge potential for acer travelmate 5320 battery development, there will be many people keen interest in this.
If the project is successful, the research and development of battery technology can be applied in many fields. With this technology, the thickness of the phone can be reduced to the extent of a credit card, notebook computers can significantly extend battery life, eliminating the frequent charge of the trouble.
