Abstract:

Solar vehicles, which simultaneously produce and consume energy, require precise energy management. However, potential users often feel uncertain about their operation compared to conventional vehicles. This study presents a simulator designed to enhance users understand long-distance travel in solar vehicles and recognize the importance of proper energy management. By utilizing Google Maps data and weather information, the simulator reproduce real-world driving conditions and provides a dashboard displaying vehicle status, updated hourly based on user-inputted speed. Users can explore various speed policy scenarios and receive recommendations for optimal driving strategies. The simulator's effectiveness was validated using the route of the World Solar Challenge (WSC). This research enables users to monitor energy dynamics before a journey, enhancing their understanding of energy management and informing appropriate speed decisions.
