Sažetak

The increasing role of electric vehicles (EVs) in future transportation systems is of significant importance for improving energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. The integration of renewable energy sources, particularly wind energy, with these vehicles has the potential to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions. This study analyzed how different wind turbine placements influence electric vehicles in terms of drag force. The aerodynamic performance impacts of various configurations were also examined. The drag force on the vehicle was determined based on the turbine location, and the optimal placement was identified. For this purpose, an electric vehicle model was designed, and simulations were conducted using ANSYS (Analysis Systems) software. Additionally, the amount of energy generated was compared with the energy loss caused by the increased drag force. Furthermore, the most efficient integration method for wind turbines in electric vehicles was determined.
