Abstract

The project work is to development of a wind-powered electric tricycle. A wind-powered electric tricycle is a sustainable mode of transportation that incorporates a wind turbine system to generate electric power. The project work involves development of a wind-powered electric tricycle using wind turbine made up of 1000W at 500rpm. The project documents the process and methodology to develop a wind-powered electric tricycle comfortable, vulnerable, durable and complete in all aspects by modelling it with CAD software. The vialibity of the windpowered electric tricycle was examined through cost report and testing. The procedural way is used for different parts of the wind-powered electric tricycle, which starts from approach with help of known facts.
