Abstract
The issue of the depletion of oil reserves in the world, and the problem of air pollution produced by motor vehicles, motivate many researchers to seek alternative energy sources to propel the vehicle. One promising way is to replace combustion motor with an electric motor, which is known as an electric vehicle. First stages of this research is to model the flow of power in the electric vehicle energy system to obtain its characteristics. Power flow efficiency in electric vehicle is very important because this type of vehicle is highly dependent on the limited electrical energy supplied by a battery. Therefore it should be managed properly. This study is to look into the power flow calculation so that the amount of electrical energy is in accordance with the needs of electric vehicle. The design of small electric vehicle model using MATLAB/Simulink software is to get the best power flow response to the electric vehicle energy system.
