Abstract
There is provided a system for harvesting drag force acting on a moving vehicle, the system comprising a fan comprising blades and a fan rotating shaft, the fan being configured to be mounted on the moving vehicle for receiving air flow resulting from the drag force acting on the moving vehicle such that the air flow act on the blades during movement of the vehicle impelling rotation of the blades, and wherein the fan rotating shaft is adapted to be connected to and in movement cooperation with the blades for rotating by the effect of the rotation of the blades for converting the air flow into kinetic energy. There is further provided a method of harvesting drag force acting on a moving vehicle, the system comprising converting air flow resulting from the drag force acting on a moving vehicle into kinetic energy, and converting the kinetic energy into at least one of mechanical energy and electrical energy for operating mechanical and electrical components of the vehicle respectively.
