FORMULA SAE ELECTRIC RACECAR

SUSPENSION AND TRANSMISSION

OUR NEXT CAR: MK. 2ABOUT THE TEAM

• 100V, 66kWh accumulator• 12 Nissan Leaf LiMn2O4 battery modules• 12s1p configuration• 4 segments of 3 modules

• Team designed battery management system (BMS)• Delphi connectors

• Worked with General Motors Global Battery Systems Laboratory

• Manual service disconnects (MSDs)• Main pack disconnect

“For the purpose of the Formula SAE competition, teams are to assume that they work for a design firm that is designing, fabricating, testing and demonstrating a prototype vehicle for the nonprofessional, weekend, competition market.”

“The vehicle should have very high performance in terms of acceleration, braking and handling”

Static Events:• Design Presentation• Cost Presentation• Business Presentation

Dynamic Events:• Acceleration• Autocross• Endurance

• Dual Zero Motors Z-Force motors (134 HP combined)• 100V, 66kWh accumulator

• 12 Nissan Leaf LiMn2O4 battery modules• 12s1p configuration

• 2 Sevcon Gen4 motor controllers• 600lb dry weight• Top speed of 60mph• 0-60mph in 3 seconds• Full multilink rear suspension• Chain drive steering• Independent rear wheel drive• Fiberglass body panels

• 30 active team members• 8 leadership team members• 2016 was our first year competing in Formula SAE• Previously built an electric go kart and electric

reverse trike• Fundraising goal ~$50,000

Goals• Start design from tire data• Lighten everywhere possible

• 425lbs target dry weight• Moving from dual motors to one

motor with a differential• Using more energy dense, high

current cells to reduce accumulator size and weight

• More modular electrical system for more efficient debugging

• Better electronics enclosures to allow for easier access to components

• Dual motors for independent rear wheel drive

• Test bed for torque vectoring

• Full multilink rear suspension• Ohlins TTX25 MkII dampers• Hoosier 20.5 x 7 13 R25B tires• OZ Racing rims
