Recently, Stanford Solar Car Projec team showed off its new design and production of all the Solar Car-Xenith. This Car for two years spent their time to design out. And in the second half of this year will be in solar energy for fuel, across the continent of Australia. Xenith design team said, Xenith is the fastest solar cars.
Every two years in Australia held each Solar World Challenge, this game challenges game design teams make traveling 3000 kilometers can (or 1864 miles) high efficiency Solar cars. Every game from Darwin of driving to their destination, Adelaide. This year's game time is scheduled for October 16 th to 23.
Generally speaking, 1000 watts of vehicle driving complete this distance need 50 hours. So, World Solar Challenge contest allow each a Solar car stored in advance is 5 degrees, Solar energy reserves to power reserve some time.
Contest rules every time is not the same, so the design team only two years to construct and manufacturing accord with the solar car all the rules. Solar car design concept will often deviating from the ordinary cars of the design concept. At present, the design concept of the car has two extremes: the reason of the abstract idea, not the actual application of the energy conservation idea (the car of the future development direction is energy saving). And the solar energy car design concept in the two completely different between the design concept of wandering.
