Abstract :
When the coaches and trucks are moving, the heads of the automobiles endure the strong press of the wind. If the wind can be used to generate the electricity, it will save a lot of energy. Based on the idea, an experiment was designed in this paper. A model automobile was modified to produce and store the electricity. The experiment results show that the method is feasible to save energy for automobiles.
