Investigations of Regenerative Braking and Vibration Energy Conservation for Efficient Charging of Lithium-Ion Battery and Supercapacitor Hybrid System in Electric Vehicle Applications

Abstract

This study aims to determine new methods of making electric vehicles more energy efficient by focusing on regenerative braking and vibration energy conservation in a hybrid energy storage system integrating lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors. The first part of the research identifies the regenerative braking system, evaluates its effectiveness, and proposes enhancements for capturing and storing braking energy. Additionally, an investigation is made into whether it would be possible to conserve vibrating energies through creative integration with energetic harvesting technologies. The purpose is to capture and convert vibrational power produced when a car moves into an electrical charge using piezoelectric device for hybrid power storage. More energy efficiency is achieved through this method while also trying to overcome the shortcomings of regenerative braking in some driving situations. This experiments involve Modeling, Simulation and development and testing of prototype systems under different driving and vibrating conditions as well as real-world performance evaluation. It will help to determine how effective the hybrid system that has been suggested enhances energy recovery and storage efficiency in electric vehicles.
