ABSTRACT:
The progress of automobiles for transportation has been intimately associated with the progress of
civilization. The automobile of today is the result of the accumulation of many years of pioneering research and
development. In the modern trend automobiles have certain disadvantages soon as fuel cost relative to mileage,
pollution and less efficiency.
 To improve Efficiency
 To decrease the fuel cost relative to mileage.
 To control the pollution is to be effect.
Then our “DUAL POWER BIKE” is an aspect. The goal of this project was to implement the most efficient and
less polluting vehicle. In our project the hybrid electric vehicle model combines the internal combustion engine
of a conventional vehicle with the battery and electric motor of an electric vehicle, resulting in twice the fuel
economy of conventional vehicle. We implement this hybrid electric vehicle concept for two wheelers.
INTRODUCTION:
Since the last two decades the judiciary and policy makers all over the world are deeply concerned
about the urgent need for protection of the environment, ecology and humanity at large, there has been a steep
rise in the accumulation of green house gases particularly CO₂, which effect global changes in weather.
Motor vehicle contribute about 14% of CO₂ from all sources besides, pollution due to both petrol and diesel
engine driven vehicles caused by the emission of CO, no un burnt hydrocarbons, particulate and oxides of tetra
ethyl, Lead are injury to health and environment.
Regulations on exhaust emission from vehicle engines have been made progressively more and more
stipend towards the year 2000 and beyond, Vehicle manufactures have been hence obliged to meet these
standards by designing cleaner and fuel efficiently engines and through provision for treatment of exhaust gases
to satisfy the specified limits.
So to satisfy and overcome these two problems namely
 Pollution and
 Efficiency
Then we go for a hybrid vehicle in the name of DUAL POWER BIKE.
COMPONENTS USED:
 Power supply (12 V Lead Acid Battery)
 Relay Circuits
 DC Gear Coupled Motor – Starting motor
 Switches to change power
 Bike with petrol Engine
 Chain drive
 Gear drive

WORKING PRINCIPLE:
The working principle of DUAL POWER BIKE basically involves two processes, the first process
involves when the vehicle is running by means of internal combustion engine and the second process involves
when the vehicle is running by means of an electric motor. When the vehicle is driven at the outside of city and
need more power to drive the vehicle is powered by means of internal combustion engines. The power from the
engine is taken from the pulley and then it rotates the wheel. During this process the vehicle is charged by
means of a generator used. The power is generated through generator is by connecting the generator shaft with
the shaft of the wheel by means of V-Belt.
When the vehicle is driven inside the city, running in the plain and need of low power the vehicle is
powered by means of a motor. The power to run the motor is supplied from the battery, as the battery is already
charged when the vehicle running on the internal combustion engine.
During this process the speed of the vehicle will be minimum and there is no smog forming pollutants produced
during the vehicle runs. When the vehicle is powered by means of electric motor the power from the internal
combustion engine will be disconnected from the shaft by loosening the belt. The mileage of the vehicle while
running on the electric motor is mainly depends upon the time of charging and also depends upon the capacity
of the battery. During this process the mileage of the vehicle is increased considerably since the power wasted
due to braking is saved considerably by means of the regenerative braking arrangement.
In this process the motor cum generator serves as motor as well as generator. It serves as a motor when
the vehicle is running by means of battery and it serves as a generator when the vehicle is running by means of
internal combustion engine.
The following diagram shows the motor speed control

WORKING:
The working of the dual powered bike based on the power requirement is shown in the following steps,
i) When power flows from the conventional engine,
Here the power from the ic engine is transmitted to the rear wheel by means
of a chain drive arrangement.
ii) When vehicle is run by means of a motor powered by a battery

Here the power from the dc motor (which is powered by a NiMH
battery) is transmitted to the rear wheel by means of a v-belt arrangement.
iii) Power is stored in the battery as a result of regenerative braking,
Here in this process power is stored in the battery during braking as a result of the
regenerative braking capacity.
FEATURES OF DUAL POWER BIKE:
 In heavy traffic and inside the city there is no chance for moving fast. At that time, if vehicle is run by
engine, more fuel is wasted due to variation of acceleration. If it is run by battery, the consumption of
power is reduced.
 During less load working condition, vehicle can be easily run by mean of battery instead of by engine,
when high torque is required it can changed to engine operated.
 Variation of speed from 10-5000 rpm can be obtained by using battery operated motor.
 When vehicle is heavy loaded, need of high torque (hills, slopes) and need of high speed, it can be
obtained by internal combustion engine.
 Comparing with normal commercial and hybrid bikes, it is better and having more advantages.
 Regarding manufacturing cost and selling price is less than other bikes by means of additional feature.
For example Honda Civic car having these types of features but its cost is around 25 lakhs. So it is
suitable for middle class people.
 More features for low cost
 The bike is available for price of less than 35 thousand.
 Pollution will be reduced and no noise can be produced around hospitals school and other places.
ADVANTAGES:
Dual Power Bike has several advantages over conventional vehicle:
 Regenerative breaking capability helps minimize energy loss and recover the energy used to slow down
or step a vehicle.
 Engines can be sized to accommodate average load, not peak load, which reduces the engine’s weight.
 Fuel efficiency is greatly increased (Hybrids consume significantly less fuel than vehicles powered by
gasoline alone)
 Emissions are greatly decreased.
 It can reduce dependency on fossil fuels because they can run on alternative fuels.
 Special lightweight materials are used to reduce the overall vehicle weight of HEVs. The HEVs
available for sale are very cost competitive with similar conventional vehicles. Any cost premium that
may be associated with HEVs of the future can be off-set by overall fuel savings and possible incentives.
Auto manufacturers are making these HEVs with comparable performance, safety, and cost because
they know that these three elements are most important to consumers. Any by combining gasoline with electric

power, hybrids will have the same or greater range than traditional combustion engines. The HEVs is able to
operate approximately two times more efficiently than conventional vehicle. Honda’s Insight can go 700 miles
on a single tank of gas. The Toyota Prius can go about 500 miles. For the driver, hybrids offer similar or better
performance than conventional vehicles
ADVANTAGES OVER OTHER VEHICLES:
There are a number of high performance and even higher mileage electric vehicles that are set
to new released in a few short years (none of them coming from major auto-companies so the prices may
be high for the average working class American) with reduce charge times (as little as an hour which
means you could recharge while you are shopping, or eating at a restaurant, watching a movie, visiting
friends and family, at the park, sport games, etc.) also the with the implication or solar panels an lighter
bodies the electric vehicles range will surpass some of the most fuel efficient automobiles on the road
today.
As for the whole longer tailpipe thing (i.e. the vast majority of electricity is produced from
polluting non renewable resources) we are currently making great strides to switch to clean renewable
resources for all of or power needs, also it has been proven that electric vehicles their electric power
from our polluting power-grid are still better for the environment due to their sheer efficiency.
The looks of the electric vehicles are finally starting to look like normal vehicles and they
perform with some of the best supercars in the world. Oh, and considering that the average American
only drives between 25 and 50 miles per day the range of 250 miles per charge is more than enough
(especially considering that you can recharge almost anywhere). Therefore electric vehicles are some of
the best performance and most efficient vehicles that should be on the road and will be on the road for
many decades to come.
