  1. ODU Formula SAE Status Update 2

  2. Management • Submitted Budget on November 2nd • Currently organizing for fabrication phase • Addition of an Aero team

  3. Gantt Chart

  4. Suspension

  5. Control Arms • .625 X .035 4130 round steel tube • 3/8” Heim joints • Completely modeled • Jigging in progress • Heims have been ordered • Wheels and tires have been processed

  6. Uprights • Uprights have been modified considerably • Bracket from top to a point outside of the wheel • Control arms had to be modified to accept new upright design

  7. Suspension Design • Designed to accommodate new uprights and A-Arm design

  8. Rockers • Redesigned to save weight • Optimize motion ratios

  9. Controls Team

  10. Shifting • Prototyped mechanical aspects of electronic shifting in the shop. • Designed the actuator mount in SolidWorks. • Compiled the order form for the actuator and actuator mount material.

  11. Pedal Assembly • Some issues have caused Pedal Assembly not to be finished • Throttle and clutch pedals will be thinner version of brake pedal • Order forms for steering have been completed and turned in

  12. Engine Team

  13. Intake Manifold Mark Griffin and Aaron Kun Mu

  14. Test Phase in Solidworks • Q (Volumetric Flow Rate) • Range Tested: 350 to 3500 • RPM: Idle at 1300 rpm to 10000 rpm

  15. Production Phase • Currently Underway • Flange to Runner Transition Piece 3D Print • - Foundry Fabrication

  16. Production Phase

  17. Cooling and Fuel System

  18. Finalized design choices for ordering parts for cooling and fuel systems Choices are based on needs, quality of products and budget considerations Radiator: Speedway Universal Ford / Mopar 19” x 22” x 2.25” 2 rows of coolant tubes Highly efficient due to use of maximum fins per Inch to increase air cooling surface area Cost effective at 129$ Fan: 14” Electric Fan 1500cfm 3” x 9” over flow tank Coolant hoses and associated adapters Cooling

  19. Fuel Cell • Completed Solid Works 3D design – design utilizes 2mm (to support welding) and 5052 aluminum to keep weight low. • To be donated by Bauer Compressors • Finalized design choices and completed cost list for ordering parts • New Pressure gauge (0-100psi , Aeromotive) • Materials to fabricate a fuel filler neck and vent • PTFE SS Fuel hoses – chosen for its compatibility with high Octane fuels • Durable, chemically and heat resistant • Blank fuel rail for fuel injection • Fuel cell safety foam – a modification in sloshing control from baffles

  20. Exhaust

  21. Exhaust Progress • Exhaust redesigned to reduce losses and fix interface • Order forms completed • Awaiting funding to purchase parts

  22. What’s Left • Fabrication • Wrap headers • Final Assembly
