Good Design, but hard to machine. The integrated components would add excess machining time and cost Separated steering and brake brackets. Retains the strength and low weight of original design while lowering machining cost. 5

Original Design Midterm Final DesignFinal Design One solid piece Heavy (2.51 lbs) Requires optimization One solid piece Very light (1.64 lbs) Difficult to machine Sharp edges result in multiple stress concentrations Three pieces 1.Upright 2.Two control arm mounts Lighter than original (2.16 lbs) Fewer corners mean fewer stress concentrations Easier to machine

Current Accomplishments: Researched different intake styles and chose the most efficient style Created and revised design in SolidWorks Completed flow analysis Ordered materials for intake 11

Intake Research Research determined that a spherical collector upright intake was the most efficient design (1). The taper of the cone collector should be between 3-7 degrees (2). Optimal runner length of 250-325mm (3). 20 mm FSAE mandated restrictor Exhaust Research Typical stock exhaust uses small diameter crush bent pipe or mandrel bent pipe. ◦ Crush bents are easier and cheaper to make however reduce the flow by 50%. ◦ To produce the most power exhaust should have minimal restriction on the exact flow. Components: 4 headers and silencer canister (muffler) (3) (1) (2) 12

Analysis o Bernoulli’s equation provides accurate pressure drop calculations o Air Flow velocites obtained by SolidWorks to check for choked flow o Flow rates can be calculated to compare the theoretical volumetric efficiency o Real world Flow Bench testing in the future to determine actual volumetric efficiency 14
15
Analysis ◦ FloXpress provides flow through one intake runner at a time ◦ Testing in SolidWorks using the pressure drop calculations ◦ Goal is to verify when restriction chokes engine air flow. ◦ Choked flow only after 11000 RPM -Airflow through the intake at 9500 RPM -RPM at which max power was previously recorded -Airflow through the intake at 11000 RPM, when choke flow begins 15
