Pugh Chart

BENCHMARKING- Example Test Benches ❖ Speed Control Test Bench (Left) ➢ Allows the study of the operation of a servodrive when a variety of loads are applied to the motor. ➢ Powder Brake to vary motor load ➢ Main Components: ■Motor Voltage ■Motor Temperature ■Load amount and type ❖ Motor Test Bench (Below) ➢ Robust, multi-compatible ➢ Flexibility through modular design ➢ Motor Torque, Power & Efficiency

SELECTED CONCEPT- MECHANICAL ❖ Two mechanical structures ➢ Mobile Cart to mimic Hot Wheelz Chassis ➢ Enclosed T-framed structure to house motors and moving parts ➢ UI will be located on top of the T-framed enclosure. ➢ All pieces are portable and compact Above: Preliminary CAD model of a 36in by 30in T-slot aluminum framing enclosure with two removable plexiglass panels for access and electrical attachment.

SUB-SYSTEM DESIGN REVIEW

MOTOR SOURCING ❖ Enstroj Emrax 228 Sourced to Vary Load on the Hot Wheelz Powertrain ➢ AC Electric Motor ➢ Continuous RPM ➢ kW Continuous Motor Power ➢ 240 Nm Max Torque ; 125 Nm Continuous Torque

MOTOR COUPLING SOLUTIONS Concerns: ❖ Vibration ❖ Durability ❖ Modularity ❖ Safety

MOTOR COUPLING SOLUTIONS Initial Concept: ❖ Subject Matter Experts ➢ Dr. Ghoneim (vibration) ➢ Prof. Humphrey (power transmission) ❖ Multi V-Belt ➢ Absorbs vibrations ➢ No slip is not critical ❖ Sheave (Pulley) ➢ Supported by a bearing on each side ➢ Fully enclosed for safety

HEAT TRANSFER ANALYSIS ❖ Energy Dissipation Method Using Resistor Banks ➢ TE Connectivity Wirewound Resistors ■Power Rating 2.5kW ❖ Assumptions ➢ Continuous Run Time 10 Minutes ➢ Room Size: 18’ X 18’ X 12’ ➢ Initial Temperature is 23 degrees Celsius ➢ Using 14 Resistors to Dissipate 32kW of Power (Worst Case) ❖ Results ➢ Final temperature of Hot Wheelz Room After Testing → 146 degrees Celsius (296 degrees Fahrenheit)
