Abstract: The only thing pushing people toward electric automobiles is the rising cost of fossil fuels, which
are slowly vanishing from nature or are likely to be and creates noise and pollutants. The several
challenges that researchers are encountering with things like initial cost, battery life, and in certain cases
how far an electric vehicle can drive are a focus of this research article. Although most of the electric
vehicle producers employ BLDC motors, their availability is limited, and they are only appropriate for the
smaller size of urban or sophisticated electric vehicles which rarely bear the heavy load and rugged
situations. However, induction motors are currently being employed in heavy-duty three- and four-wheel
vehicles. The author of this research article looked into and evaluated a significant amount of data before
concluding that an electric vehicle's solar roof can help keep energy in a storage cell if solar rooftops are
incorporated into the vehicle in the event of open-air parking. The induction of motor-driven solar-powered
electric vehicles is suggested in this regard. Two electric motors a BLDC and an induction motor—and
their performance are evaluated mathematically in this research article. To learn more about the structural
analysis of Induction motor-driven solar automobiles, MATLAB simulations were described. The findings of
this study may help researchers better understand Induction motors, which are used to boost the durability,
dependability, high speed, and low maintenance costs of electric vehicles. Solar roofing might also improve
the battery life and distance running of an electric vehicle.

I. INTRODUCTION
Globally, transportation plays a significant part in daily life, even though it also contributes significantly to
environmental degradation and exhausts electric vehicle emissions. It has been noted that IC engine-based vehicles
today may be a significant source of pollution. As a result of a large source of electric vehicles on emissions in the
environment, researchers are working to electrify vehicles in this regard, including HEVs, PEVs, PHEVs, and NEVs.[1]
The primary research area's concentration is on electric vehicles with electric motors and how well they operate. A
variety of motor types play a part in the electrification of transportation, and most producers of electric vehicles employ
BLDC motors because they don't require commutators. [2] The majority of manufacturers used BLDC as a major part
of the electric vehicle, but they discovered it to be expensive because its magnet is a key component and it is also
unsuitable for supporting big loads. [3] The BLDC, a significant player in the electric vehicle market, is less accessible
and more expensive than an induction motor for urban applications. [1]. Researchers and electric vehicle manufacturers
have observed that the BLDC is less effective than other prime movers for electric vehicles in terms of speed,
robustness, and durability. As a result, they have looked at other alternative options that are also robust, cost-effective,
and durable. The NITI Aayog is planning to fully electrify automobiles to eliminate or greatly reduce the major issue of
environmental pollution. [4] This research article is divided into sections after the introduction Section 2 describes the
topic of the article Background; Section 3 elaborates on the gaps that motivated the authors to work on this issue;

Section 4 explains the structural analysis of induction motor-driven solar-powered electric vehicles; Section 5 provides
support for induction motor-driven solar-powered electric vehicles, and Section 6 concludes with recommendations for
future research.
II. SECTION 2. BACKGROUND
Induction motors are gradually taking the place of internal combustion engines in two- or four-wheeled electric
mobility. The most efficient and comfortable for passengers are electric vehicles, which also have no emissions. The
lack of charging stations and the initial cost, however, are the key problems. The author is looking at the structure of an
induction motor-driven solar-powered electric vehicle that has a high power density, instantaneous output, quick torque
response, small and light design, high regenerative efficiency, affordable price, simple maintenance requirements, and
all of these characteristics. [5] with the integration of durable, dependable, and cost-effective prime movers with solar-
powered electric vehicles. When parked outside, an electric vehicle's solar roof can aid in conserving energy in a
storage cell. To compare the overall performance of induction motors with BLDC motors for use in transportation
applications, a MATLAB simulation has been powered electric vehicle ride out. Since the performance of an electric
vehicle can only be understood in terms of the motor's power-speed or torque-speed characteristics, we anticipate great
efficiency in terms of a dependable, sturdy, longer-lasting, and cost-effective electric motor. In this regard, a BLDC
motor and induction motor mathematical model, along with a MATLAB simulation, were used to evaluate the
performance.
III. SECTION 3. MOTIVATION TO WORK ON THIS ISSUE BY THE GAPS.:
Riders today deal with the following challenges in electric vehicles:
1. irregular solar light
2. The price of new electric vehicles
3. The biggest issue is EV charging stations.
4. There are serious difficulties with driving range and speed.
5. Qualified maintenance staff
6. Consumers' understanding of financial advantages is limited
7. Too little battery life
Although the majority of electric vehicle producers employ BLDC motors, their availability is limited, and they are
only appropriate for small urban electric vehicles. However, induction motors are currently being employed more and
more in heavy-duty three- and four-wheel vehicles.
IV. SECTION 4. THE ARCHITECTURE OF INDUCTION MOTOR-DRIVEN SOLAR-POWERED
ELECTRIC VEHICLE:
A solar rooftop serves as the charging source for the proposed induction motor-driven solar-powered electric vehicle,
which also has a converter/controller circuit, a battery bank, a motor, and an electric vehicle body. Figure 1 provides a
detailed explanation of each component of an induction motor-driven solar automobile.
Storage Charging Source:
The energy source, which depends on the desired capacity, is crucial to the operation of the electric vehicle. An electric
vehicle's weight, low energy density, longer charging periods, and battery life are all important considerations. [6] The
battery of an electric vehicle, which is charged at grid-connected charging stations, stores energy that the vehicle uses
as it travels. However, a researcher is working on an alternative energy source to charge the battery that should not only
charge but also extend the battery life and avoid battery waste [7] by using slow and continuous charging and, to some
extent, increasing the length of distance covered by the electric vehicle in the absence of charging stations. This source
of energy is solar panels mounted on rooftop space. Mono-perc crystalline silicon solar panels with high efficiency are
often employed in photovoltaic electric vehicle applications. While the panel efficiency was 13 percent in a month with
full sunlight, it has been highlighted that there are roughly 300 sunlight days available out of which 8.29% is in India
[4] On sunny days, solar energy can be utilized directly to power an electric vehicle, or it can be stored and used at

less switching stress, and the capacity to be utilized with numerous strings of solar panels. [8]

as well as power electronics, which is merely a converter. In solar-powered electric vehicles, the converter is essential
because it enables it to lower the voltage supplied to the motor or even charge the battery which undoubtedly
contributes to the electric vehicle market [9]and the battery at the same time utilizing the DG system. [10]as an
alternating source of energy like non-conventional sources like fuel cells, wind turbine energy generation, and solar
array mounted on the roof of the vehicle when the solar irradiation is sufficiently high and the voltage required by the
motor is less than the output voltage produced by the solar panel. In another scenario, where the solar voltage is
insufficient to power the motor, the converter can raise the output voltage. [2] Additionally, wind energy can be used
when an electric vehicle is fully operational and traveling down the road, and a wind turbine is placed so that it can
move in response to air pressure on the wings that result from it forces exerted by the electric vehicles. [11]
Power Electronics Accessories:
Here power electronics is an active player in an electric vehicle the application of solid-state electronics to control
electric power is called a controller which comprises of inverter and control [12] It must eventually be transformed into

There are several types of batteries used in electric vehicles like Lithium-ion Batteries, Lithium Polymer, Lithium
Phosphate, and Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) [13]. Studies have shown that a battery's failure can be ascribed to a
variety of causes, including a defective cell, improper manufacturing procedures, aging, uncontrolled operating
conditions, misuse, external forces, etc. For induction motor-driven solar-powered electric vehicle applications, where
the solar array will be an added benefit to a slow and efficient charging process of an induction motor-driven solar-
powered electric vehicle battery storage system, the battery should be routinely monitored and maintained. Another
place where a battery management system should be used is to enhance the battery's performance and durability.[14]
Electric Motor used in EVs:
A variety of motor applications are used in electric vehicles, as shown in Figure 4. An electric motor's primary use is
for propulsion, but it can also be used for other purposes like window sliding, front and rear wipers, seat adjustment,
etc. Most of these applications can be powered by electric vehicle ride out with just a DC motor while the primary
prime mover is sometimes connected across the front wheel to increase efficiency. Because a prime mover for a
commercial application as a significant component is most appropriate, one of the AC motors from the Figure 5
Squirrel Cage induction Motor is taken into consideration. [15] and to increase vehicle efficiency thanks to its durability
and low maintenance requirements. Although the induction motor is more favorable than all other types of motor used
in electric vehicles, excess power received by the induction motor is used to move the vehicle at varying loads. Now
that we have three-phase symmetrical windings and a square wave for the air gap, we need to compare the performance
evaluation of BLDC and induction Motors for any electric vehicle. Armature reactions are observed as negligible but at
the inner surface of the stator where they are continuously distributed in a BLDC motor.

BLDC Motor used in Electric Vehicles:
Researchers and EV manufacturers created BLDC because PMDC's commutator, which was used by 60% of
manufacturers in the 1990s and is one of its major shortcomings. BLDC shares characteristics with permanent magnet
DC motors. It is referred to as a brushless motor simply because it is devoid of a commutator and brush arrangement.
This motor uses electronic commutation, which eliminates the requirement for BLDC motor maintenance. Among their
propelling qualities are BLDC motors' strong starting torque and high efficiency. For design techniques that emphasize
high power density, BLDC motors are appropriate. The most popular motors used in applications for electric bicycles
and small-powered electric vehicles are BLDC motors. [5], due to their greater traction, and hybrid electric vehicles.
Motor speed may be limited, and for the Indian market, durability and robustness are crucial elements. Any electric
vehicle's key contribution to a dependable and effective transportation system is the choice of the prime mover. [4]

The three-phase voltage is represented in the equivalent circuit above by the letters Xa, Xb, and Xc, while the current

the letters Va, Vb, and Vc. The three-phase stator resistance is displayed in the circuit as Ra Rb, Rc, while the
inductor's inductance is displayed as A-B. so that the three-phase equations for the BLDC winding
Xa = IcRc+(A-B) dIc/dt +Va
Xb = IbRb+(A-B) dIb/dt+Vb
Xc = Ia Ra+(A-B) dIa/dt+Vc
The BLDC motor's stator has two conduction channels.
Also Xa-Xc=2RIs+2(A-B)dIs/dt+2Vs
The BLDC motor is then torqued electromagnetically.
Which is Torque(τ)=2VsIs/α
Where α angular speed

the result of the equation above is as Torque(τ)=kIs
Additionally, for the BLDC electromotive torque to X=Xa-Xb whose voltage is the line

management techniques enable the motor to start with its maximum torque. Because they require little upkeep, squirrel
cage induction motors have a long lifespan. It is possible to produce induction motors with an efficiency of 95%.
Therefore, it was discovered that induction motors, which are physically robust and require little upkeep, are most
suited for electric vehicles, with IM with longer and larger diameter designs showing higher performance. [15] When
compared to other types of motors, the induction motor is found to be suitable in all respects, including adaptability,
long life, and cost-effectiveness. Some electric vehicle manufacturers, like Tesla and BMW, prefer induction motors,
however, when compared to other motor types, induction motors are shown to be adequate in all areas, including
adaptability, long life, and cost-effectiveness. There was an improvement in the induction motor's overall performance
following the optimization of the inverted trapezoid slot. An active series filter can be used in circuits to increase the
power factor, or the phase angle between current and voltage, to a desired value of unity.[16]

VI. CONCLUDED WITH THE DIRECTION OF FUTURE RESEARCH WORK:
In this research, the performance of an induction motor was evaluated using MATLAB and compared to a BLDC
motor. It was found that the robustness, minimal maintenance, long life, and high-speed characteristics of the induction
motor make it a good prime mover for an induction motor-driven solar-powered electric vehicle and increase the
efficiency of the vehicle. Additionally, it has been shown that heavy-duty three-wheel and four-wheel electric vehicles
with rooftop solar arrays can assist in charging batteries when parked outside. And certainly, future research will focus
on the prospect of a solar array skin type that may be used on the body of electric vehicles. It will also run a campaign
to raise public understanding of government regulations for EV drivers.

This paper proposes a novel method of correcting power factor of an induction motor by the making the use of active power filters. In the electrical power system mostly 80% to 85% power factor is reduced by using induction motor as a load in various industries for acting as a prime mover. The induction motor running with a little power factor may cause power quality problems in the electrical power system. Due to very little power factor the load draws high starting current from the electrical grid, this causes various problems like voltage fluctuation, voltage sag and sometimes warmth the winding of the induction machine. Therefore, it is required to develop a method which uses active filters for improving the power factor of the induction motor

In electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid EVs, energy efficiency is essential where the energy storage is limited. Adding to its high stability and low cost, the induction motor efficiency improves with loss minimisation. Also, it can consume more power than the actual need to perform its working when it is operating in less than full load condition. This study proposes a control strategy based on the fuzzy logic control (FLC) for EV applications. FLC controller can improve the starting current amplitude and saves more power. Through the MATLAB/SIMULINK software package, the performance of this control was verified through simulation. As compared with the conventional proportional integral derivative controller, the simulation schemes show good, high‐performance results in time‐domain response and rapid rejection of system‐affected disturbance. Therefore, the core losses of the induction motor are greatly reduced, and in this way improves the efficiency of the driving system. Finally, the suggested control system is validated by the experimental results obtained in the authors’ laboratory, which are in good agreement with the simulation results.

High power induction motor (IM) is widely used in industries and recently has been put into electric vehicle as the replacement of the internal combustion engine. In order to study the characteristics of the IM, a model of three-phase squirrel cage induction motor is designed and developed using MATLAB Simulink tool. Synchronous reference frame (SRF) technique is implemented to simplify the equivalent circuit model. Based on state space form, a flux linkage equation is developed using three stages transformation matrices. It demonstrated a good performance with fast response for AC start-up test, where simulated induced torque, rotor speed, mechanical out-put power, efficiency, slip and stator current waveforms were generated accordingly. Indeed, the developed IM model can be used as a starting platform to further study and analyses the IM drives performance for electric vehicle application.
