Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) TAMUQ Student Chapter Orientation Meeting October 8, 2006

What is SAE?SAE Founded in 1905 Largest organization in defining aerospace and automotive engineering standards Sections in over 97 countries A shared network of engineering knowledge

SAE Categories Automobiles

Aerospace

Functions of SAE Student Sections Arrange technical lectures Arrange symposiums and contests Arrange technical field trips Participate in student competitions: Aero design Formula SAE Baja SAE Supermilage

TAMU and SAE TAMU has been joining the Formula SAE competition (FSAE) since 1998 TAMU has been won official competitions over the past 4 years TAMU has also developed the Sunracer solar car and taken part in competitions in the US and Canada.

TAMU and SAE TAMU has been joining the Formula SAE competition (FSAE) since 1998 The project is designed in the fall and built and tested in the spring semester TAMU has won official competitions over the past 4 years.

TAMU Solar Car (Sunracer*)

Our plans…. Arrange two technical lectures for the academic year Arrange a technical field trip Design and build solar scaled solar vehicle

Vision… Be able to build a fully operational vehicle to participate in regional contests

Exploded view of a solar car chassis: wheels and bearings: power source: transmission: body shell:

Exploded view: Electrical System The full electrical system

Exploded view: Mechanical System The steering system Wheels configuration The general mechanical system

Exploded view: Source of Power The solar array is the vehicle's only source of power The array is made up of many (often several hundred) photovoltaic solar cells that convert the sun's energy into electricity The cells are wired together to form strings. Several strings are often wired together to form a section or panel that has a voltage close to the nominal battery voltage The power from the array is used either to power the electric motor or stored in the battery pack for later use Solar array

Solar Vehicles…
