Solar Powered Air-Cooling system for Idle Parked Cars

Abstract

When a car is parked under the sun for longer time, the car cabin gets heated up. The temperature inside may rise to around 60 to 70 degrees, which makes the passengers feel uncomfortable inside the car moreover these high temperatures cause health problems. In order to overcome these problems, the passengers switch on Air Conditioner which leads consumption of fuel energy or open up all the doors and windows and waste time. To eliminate these problems a SOLAR POWERED AIR-COOLING SYSTEM can be installed in the car. This system uses a solar panel to capture the sunlight and convert the Solar energy into the Electrical energy which is used to recharge the 12V battery, which then gives necessary power for the cooling module which consist of Peltier Thermoelectric cooler and fan motor. The cool air is blown inside the car which reduces the temperature in the car cabin. The system is controlled by using a switch device. The installation of SOLAR POWERED AIR COOLING SYSTEM in the cars, would be a better solution as it uses solar power to cool down the inside temperature of the car which is parked in the hot sun to more acceptable temperatures that would give more comfort to the passengers and pose significantly less health risks and material damages.
