Abstract:The goal of this multi-year project is to create a fully functional University of Idaho entry in the hybrid FSAE competition. Vehicle integration is underway as part of a variety of 2010-11 senior design projects. This leverages a variety of analytical and empirical studies undertaken in FY 2010 that demonstrate feasibility of the electromechanical powertrain, the energy management system, and the chassis layout. This project has engaged a broad population of graduate and undergraduate students in implementing sustainable transportation technology as well as creation of knowledge management systems that will benefit current and future competition teams. Approximately 1/3 of the allowed 20 MJ for the 22 mile endurance event will be supplied in the initial charge state of the battery pack. The remaining 2/3 is stored in the vehicle‟s gas tank. Accomplishments to date include a road load energy model, performance testing of the electric motor/controller, solid modeling of a reconfigured YZ250F motorcycle engine, suspension modeling, frame design, and a preliminary electronic archive designed to serve as a resource for just-in-time learning of hybrid terminology, subsystem descriptions, analysis methods, and performance tests. Specifications are given for all major subsystems and components.
