Abstract

The quantity of vehicle nowadays is increasing rapidly from year to year, the automotive sector has undergone a new era by producing hybrid vehicle. The definition of a hybrid is a vehicle utilizes more than one form of on-board energy to achieve propulsion. This means that a hybrid will have an internal combustion engine and fuel tank as usual car, but also will have one or more electric motors and a battery pack. This project is about the energy regenerative suspension system (EReSS). As we know when the car is moving, it would produce waste energy in the suspension system which will be wasted. Normally, this waste energy is dumped in a form of thermal energy in conventional of mechanical shock absorber. This project is about harnessing the energy and convert it to useful energy such as electrical energy to charge the battery pack by using the electromagnet concept. Every time vehicle move on the broken or cracked profile road, then the suspension system will move upward and downwards in vertical motion. The motion will cause the magnet to move together with the absorber. As the result of the process, magnetic flux occurs due to the presence of coil copper wire around the housing which will produce electricity through the copper wires. The main target of this project is to draw EReSS using CATIA V5R20 software and do deformation analysis of the model. Then, fabricate the test rig module was fabricated so that it can be used in the future.
