Before directly going to the solar powered car project, let us study

some basics of solar cells and motor actions. The goal of -DC
electrical motor powered by solar panel circuit given below, is to
drive a DC motor using a solar panel and hence demonstrate how we
can use the solar power directly in particular applications. We are
describing about a solar powered car, which is the best example for
the application level illustration of DC electrical motor powered by
solar panel.

Body : Aerodynamics
A shape that release the least resistance to the flow of the air.
If the object was adjusted, the flow of the air around the
object will smooth and cause less drag.

I. Downforce
The rounded and tapered shape of the top of the car is
designed to slice through the air and minimize wind
resistance. Detailed pieces of bodywork on top of the car can
be added to allow a smooth flow of air to reach the
downforce-creating elements.
II. Bernoullis Principle
A physics principle that increase in the speed of a fluid
produces a decrease in pressure and that a decrease in the
speed of a fluid produces an increase in pressure. The
principle states that the total energy of a moving fluid
remains constant at all times. Therefore fluid pressure is
inversely proportional to fluid velocity.
