The choice of the optimal orientation of the solar panels is by far one of the most important issues in the practical application of solar installations. The use of phase changing materials (PCMs) is an efficient approach of storing solar thermal energy. Because PCMs are isothermal in nature, they provide better density energy storage and the capacity to function across a wide temperature range. Unfortunately, this feature is very rare on various solar power panels; however, ignoring it can reduce the performance of the panels to unacceptable levels. The fact is that the angle of incidence of rays on the surface greatly affects the reflection coefficient and, consequently, the role of unacceptable solar energy. In this paper, a smart energy harvesting model was proposed. In the case of glass, when the angle of incidence varies vertically from its surface to 30, the reflection coefficient is practically unchanged and slightly less than 5%, i.e., more than 95% of the radiation goes inwards. Furthermore, the reflection increase is noticeable, and the area of the reflected radiation by 60 doubles to almost 10%. At an angle of incidence of 70, it reflects 20% of the radiation, and at 80, 40%. For most other objects, the dependence of the reflection magnitude on the angle of incidence is approximately the same.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the design computation and prototype model implementation of a Modified Mechanical Structure (MMS) Electric Bike (E-Bike). It is the technology that allows the vehicle to operate with the assistance of electrical energy. All conventional cars will be converted to electric vehicles (EVs) in the future. EVs will be affordable to all types of people, allowing them to fly comfortably and safely. As a result, this paper proposes a design estimate and model implementation of the MMS E-Bike with the smallest number of parts, lowest expense, and lightest weight possible. The most important parts of the designed MMS E-Bike are the battery, MMS, BLDC motor, and electronic commutator with their controller. Because of its adapted mechanical frame nature, the designed E-Bike is low in cost and weight, and it can also go up to 25 kmph. Furthermore, the rider will be able to ride the built MMS E-Bike without any pain to their bodies and should be able to sit comfortably during their journey. In comparison to the Ampere Angel and DMW Electra 20 E-Bikes, the performance of the developed model is tested under various operating conditions, as well as their battery backup.
