1. Presented by, Jeffrey Ryan

2.  To develop testing and data collection capabilities for the RIT Baja team and to help them utilize all available resources to better their competitive edge

3.

4. Driveline Improvements Learn Engine Knowledge CVT Mapping Fixed Reduction Knowledge Improve CVT Optimization Alternate Drive Systems

5. Improve Driveline Develop Data Collection Methods Test Procedures Measurement Capabilities Analyze Data Interpret Collected Data Reiterate Collection methods as needed AdvanceOptimizeInnovate Time

6. Develop Capabilities Dyno. Test Stand Measurement Abilities Testing Procedure Full Drive train testing Test Baseline Current components Further Develop Testing Procedures Identify trends in components Analyze Data Optimization and Innovation “Perfect” current components CVT and Planetary Introduce new components Sequential Manual Mech. Shift http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyno http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuously_variable_transmission

7. Develop – SD and Baja Race – Baja Team Research – SD and Graduates Time

8.  Provides Driveline Component Knowledge to the Team  Verifies Current Designs and assumptions  Utilizes the Universities Resources that are currently Stagnant  Opens the opportunities to further testing and Data Acquisition  First Step in developing more efficient Baja Technologies.  Independent of Vehicle

9. DisciplinePurpose METest Fixture/Mechanical Design METest Fixture/Mechanical Design ME (Jeff)Integration of Mech. Sys. To Elec. Sys, Controls Development EE Sensor and Data Acquisition Development, Controls Development

10.  Week 1  Specific Assignments Related to gaining understanding of team and project  Read Baja Rules  Read Dyno. Capabilities/Usage  Read Team Values and Norm  Background Discussion  Tour of Dyno. Lab with Prof. DeMinco  Week 2  Begin to Assign Long Term Responsibilities  Get physical Dyno. Measurements for modeling  Get measurements from Baja Component  Concept generation (Brainstorming)

11.  Engine Dynamometer (Department)  Vehicle components (Baja Team)  Sensors  Material for Test Stand (Department)  Software (Department)

12.  Engine Dyno. may not be finished by end of summer  Dyno. time may be limited  Baja teams Data Aq. may not be operational  Dynamic vehicle operation needs more understanding  SD would implement their own system  Baja team may be unwilling to give certain resources at strategic points in the year

13.  Revisit QFD with Baja Team and SD Team  Finish Uploading to Edge  Further Understanding of Dyno. usage and capabilities  Possibly find or create some documentation
