Comparative Analysis and Fabrication of Regenerative Braking System Using MATLAB

The paper suggests the implementation of a regenerative braking system as a solution to the foremost issues hindering the mass use of electric automobiles, namely battery charging time and insufficient number of charging stations. The system enables a vehicle to recover energy whenever the brakes are used, thus reducing the need for external charging stations and decreasing the charging time. The proposed system uses a friction lining setup within a brake drum that generates electricity using motors as a dynamo. When the brake drum rotates, the friction lining initially avoids contact with the drum. Upon braking, the lining engages the drum from the inside, causing the connected motors to move in the same direction. Lighter braking increases energy recovery, enhancing the system's efficiency. The proposed regenerative braking technology can contribute to the development of a pollution-free transportation system. As the world moves toward the era of electric mobility, innovative solutions like the proposed regenerative braking system can help reduce the carbon footprint of transportation. The system converts the kinetic energy generated during deceleration into electrical energy that can be stored in the battery for future use, thus maximizing energy recuperation. The paper comprehensively overviews the proposed regenerative braking system, discussing its working principle, components, and benefits. The system has the potential to revolutionize the electric automobile industry and pave the way for a more sustainable future. The suggested framework is cost-effective, easy to implement, and can be retrofitted to existing automobiles, making it a feasible solution for the mass adoption of electric vehicles. The paper concludes by highlighting the importance of implementing regenerative braking technology and its role in achieving a pollution-free transportation system.
