BATTERY PERFORMANCE METER FOR ELECTRIC PROPULSION SYSTEMS Team Members: Ryan Bickham, Dennis Blosser Cody Dinkins, Todd Dutton, Rachel Shively February 19, 2008 Project Sponsor: Patrick Taylor, Ph.D., AMRDEC
Received Parts Magtrol DSP6001 dynamometer controller
Received Parts 20 psi pressure regulator
Motor Mount Design
Recent Developments Attended LabVIEW tutorial – became familiar with software interface Submitted coupler design to machinist Module 1102B will relay both temperature and voltage signals to chassis –Module 1126 can only be used for frequency so will no longer be used M-Test software will be delivered soon
Example Continuous Voltage Reading in LabVIEW
Next Steps Assemble cooling system Finalize motor mount drawings Continue LabVIEW programming of VI Coordinate with SAE team concerning LabVIEW programming Acquire power supply for Hall effect sensor and signal generator
