Project Description Design and Fabrication of a new Intake System for the 2008 Formula SAE car. Deliverables: A new intake system All attachments and mounts A detailed design report 7/31/2018
Design Motivation Inadequate data describing the intake and exhaust systems FSAE team has suffered at competition due to lack of presentable data FSAE team is unable to make improvements to current system due to lack of appropriate testing and modeling Previous system was fabricated in one day without development of fabrication methodology
Design Constraints Described in FSAE rules: Packaging: Cost: 20mm Venturi restrictor on intake 110 dB max exhaust volume Packaging: Fit within rear of car Air filter, throttle, restrictor, fuel rail and muffler mounts Cost: Team must report market values of components used
System Selection Natural Aspiration Car was designed for natural aspiration Inexpensive compared to turbocharging No moving parts Requires thorough understanding of system geometry
