Elektrikli Araçların Tasarımında Malzeme Seçiminin Önemi

Elektrikli araçlar artan nüfusla birlikte ihtiyacı karşılamakta yetersiz kalan fosil yakıtların kullanıldığı motorlu araçlara alternatif olarak geliştirilmiştir. Elektrikli araçların yaygınlaşması ile fosil yakıtların kullanımı neticesinde oluşan emisyonların çevresel etkilerinin azaltılması amaçlanmaktadır. Menzilinin kısa olması, batarya dolum süresinin uzunluğu ve satış fiyatının yüksek olması elektrikli araçların yaygınlaşmasının önündeki engellerdir. Maliyeti büyük ölçüde bataryalardan kaynaklanan bu araçların menzili artırmak için daha fazla kapasiteye sahip batarya kullanmak gerekmektedir. Ancak ağır bir araç menzil sorunu oluşturmaktadır. Menzili artırmak için daha düşük yoğunluğa sahip alternatif malzemeler kullanarak araç hafifletilebilir. Böylece aynı batarya kapasitesi ile daha uzun yol kat edilebilmektedir. Araçların imalatında kullanılan bu malzemelerin seçiminde bulunabilirlik, çevresel etki, dayanım ve maliyet gibi unsurlar dikkate alınmalıdır. Bu çalışma kapsamında, elektrikli araçların hafifletilmesi amacı ile kullanılan malzemeler ve bu malzemelerin seçiminde dikkat edilmesi gereken hususlar irdelenmiştir.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Importance of Material Selection in Design of Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles (EVs) have been developed as an alternative to cars with fossil-fuel engine in consequence of that fossil fuels are incompetence due to increase in population. It is aimed that Green House Gases after fossil-fuel consumption will be reduced by prevalence of electric vehicles. Short ranges, long charging times and high cost are challenges that prevent wide spreading of EVs. Considerable part of costs result from battery expenditure, however, EVs need more batteries for more range. But more battery means shortening the range due to its weight. Lightweight materials are utilized to expand range of vehicle with less battery. Availability, environmental impact, strength and costs must be considered on design stage. In this study, lightweight materials and material selection process are investigated in order to lighten of EVs.
