Abstract: Radiators, automobiles, and methods of transferring thermal energy to or from an automobile. The radiators include elongated, flattened tubes that transfer thermal energy while minimally affecting the reference area of the automobile, reducing the amount of drag produced by the radiator.
Abstract: Vehicles having a plurality of solar cells arranged on a dashboard of the vehicle. The solar cells are arranged at an acute angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the dashboard, and may have an arcuate shape along the longitudinal axis of the dashboard. The solar cells may have an irregular octagon shape and may be more flexible along one axis of symmetry relative to the other axis of symmetry.
