CT University’s School of Engineering and Technology invents Vehicle Rooftop Design for Electrical Power Generation

Ludhiana, June 13, 2022: The department of mechanical Engineering of CT University is fulfilling all the needs of students and providing world class knowledge to students by giving hands-on experience of machineries available as well as filing number of patents for different social needs.

Dr. Sudhir Kumar, Assistant Prof., CT University from Mechanical Engineering and Dinesh Kumar, Assistant Prof has invented two mechanisms which have been accepted by the Indian design patent office, Kolkata, India.

Dr. Sudhir and Dinesh Kumar explained about the invented design and said that the invention has application in power generation by using wind power which is acting as a drag on the vehicle body. The design may give a powerful impact on decreasing the fuel demand of automotive vehicles by running all of the electrical appliances especially the AC system/heater of an automotive vehicle. The proposed design may be used in any type of car, bus, or other vehicles where the fuel consumption rate is higher due to its AC and heater system demands. The published patent is entitled as “Modified vehicle rooftop design for electrical power generation from airdrag.”

The students of mechanical engineering CT University are continuously working for the conversion of theoretical concept into industrial product.

According to Dr. Sudhir Kumar, mechanical engineering is an evergreen branch and has infinite potential to serve society by inventing new technologies and mechanisms.

Chancellor Charanjit Singh, Dr. Manbir Singh, Pro-Chancellor, Harpreet Singh, Vice-Chairman, and Dr Harsh Sadawarti, Vice-Chancellor, CT University congratulated the team for this achievement. Dr Sadawarti said that Mechanical engineering plays a critical role in manufactured technologies. It enables you to do many daily activities with ease. It is one of the most important subdivisions of engineering, because without it, many of the technologies we use every day would not be available.
