The study was carried out about the design of Power Car for Korean High Speed Train of maximum operating speed of 350㎞/h. At 350㎞/h, air resistance accounts for by far the greater part of overall resistance to forward motion. So, The Power Car's shape has to be largely determined by aerodynamic considerations. In a multiple unit such as the KHST, the two power cars assume the role of a locomotive. They accommodate all the machinery for providing traction. The train is controlled and monitored from power cars. The mechanical portion of KHST Power Car is the subject of this paper, which focuses on aerodynamics, mass balance, the car body and the layout of the equipment that is fitted into power car.

Recently study on components for a electric golf car and a utility car driven by a electric motor has been performed actively, and the study on a drive motor, a inverter and a battery focuses on a small, light weight and high power density source to improve fuel efficiency using limited electric energy. Especially, since a utility car such as a golf car performance depends on initial acceleration and maximum speed capability, a drive system requires high power and large and wide operation area, This study therefore investigates on the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor with high power density and wide operation, and is verified with the test result after design and characteristic analysis is performed

The study was carried out about the design of power Car for Korean High Speed Train of maximum operating speed of 350km/h. The running resistance accounts toy the greater part of overall resistance to front hue motion. So, The Power Car's shape has to be mainly determined by aerodynamic considerations. In the train configuration of the KHST, the front and rear power cars assume the role of a locomotive. They accommodate all the machinery for providing traction. The train is controlled and monitored from power cars. This report was descrived, which focuses on aerodynamics, mass balance, the car body and the layout of the equipment that is fitted into power car.

Hybrid car can improve fuel efficiency using a power of motor that is generated during constant-speed or deceleration driving. The motor is located between engine and transmission. But, when voltage of main battery is low, fuel efficiency is low because the voltage can't run the motor. In this situation, this study observed fuel efficiency when using solar cell for assistance power. In order to verify a fuel consumption of hybrid car equipped solar cell for assistance power, the car was tested downtown driving. As hybrid car was equipped solar cell for assistance, fuel consumption was reduced 8.35 % at running air conditioner. And, at air conditioner doesn't work, fuel consumption was reduced 6.88 %. This point of view, CO2 is expected to reduce in similar proportion.

Both an optimal design of the engine operating strategy and fuel economy prediction technique for a HEV under the vehicle driving condition are very crucial for the development of vehicle fuel economy performance. Thus, in this study, engine operating characteristics of PRIUS III were analyzed with vehicle running conditions and the correlations between vehicle tractive power and fuel consumption were introduced. As a result, fuel economy performance of PRIUS III with various test modes were predicted and verified. Errors of predicted fuel economy were between -5% and -1%.

The shape of the KHST, and of the power car in particular, is largely determined by aerodynamic considerations. At high speeds, air resistance accounts for the major part of overall resistance to forward motion. Further points to be considered are environmentally undesirable acoustic phenomena and pressure waves. Minimizing power requirements and environmentally-unfriendly noise and pressure waves are thus major objectives in the development of the KHST. When deciding on the aerodynamic design of the power car, the entire train set has to be taken into consideration. This paper describes the design process and results about the front shape of the KHST.
