TESLA WITH HIS CAR BATTERY

 

WHAT IS TESLA-

Tesla was founded in 2003 by a group of engineers who wanted to prove that people didn’t need to compromise to drive electric – that electric vehicles can be better, quicker and more fun to drive than gasoline cars. Today, Tesla builds not only all-electric vehicles but also infinitely scalable clean energy generation and storage products. Tesla believes the faster the world stops relying on fossil fuels and moves towards a zero-emission future, the better.

MODERN ELECTRIC CAR

Modern electric cars are not less powerful than cars with combustion engines both in speed and acceleration amount. They are reliable, economical and safe in operation. With every year the maximum range of an electric car is increasing and its battery charging time is decreasing. Solving the problem of environmental safety, the governments of most countries are trying to encourage people to switch to electric cars by creating subsidy programs, lending and abolition of taxation. Therefore, the advent of an electric vehicle in all major cities of the world is inevitable.

 A vehicle driven by an electric motor which has no gearbox, due to the attachment of a shaft directly to wheels and it can be charged from both specialized charging stations, and from a home electric outlet. According to conventional opinion, the advantage of an electric car, compared with conventional vehicle, is its environmental friendliness, since it does not use combustible mixtures, and thus causes no harmful emissions into the atmosphere and the explosiveness considerably reduces. The energy used in electric vehicles today is definitely cheaper than gasoline and diesel fuel. The batteries of such vehicles can be charged during the slope movement (recovery mode) or from sunlight. Easy assembly and simple design provide reliability and service life of an electric vehicle, expand service interval mileage, resulting in significant cost savings for the owner. Low noise level assures comfort . But this car is not without shortcomings too, which include the production difficulties of cheap (precious metals are currently used to create them) and capacious battery packs for a long-term work, free from harmful substances, which creates a problem of their disposal. The problem is also the relatively low mileage between the battery chargings , which decreases if the ambient temperature goes down. The temporary disadvantage is the absence of advanced electric transport infrastructure (network of electric charging stations and service stations, etc.). The elimination of these shortcomings will lead to a significant increase in the number of electric vehicles in the developed countries.

The Car Battery

The car battery consist of conventional lithium-ion, The battery itself consists of 16 units located along the bottom of the car, and it increases considerably torsion stiffness and safety, due to lowering of center of gravity and to the perfect weight distribution between the axles.

Tesla Motors company has created the Supercharger charging station, which allows to charge battery of electric vehicle by 50%, is 20 minutes ,80% in 40minutes , full charge of the battery in 1.5 hours , and to replace the battery with a fully charged one in 1.5 minutes . This record speed of charge became possible due to the power of the charging station of 120 kW and power supply directly to the battery instead of the traditional charging scheme. At this time no load occurs on the power grid through the use of alternative energy sources - solar cells at the charging stations.
