  • Sunrayce 97 a New Learning Experience for the Engineering
    1 Session 1547 Sunrayce 97 - A New Learning Experience for the Engineering Technology Students at Middle Tennessee State University B. S. Sridhara Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) Abstract The US Department of Energy (DOE) organizes a solar car race called Sunrayce, once in every two years. This race is open for all colleges and universities on the North American continent. As faculty advisor for the undergraduate team at Middle Tennessee State University, I submitted a proposal in the Spring of 1996. We were selected as one of the top 30 teams to compete in Sunrayce 97. The solar car project gave our students a unique learning experience in areas such as Engineering Mechanics, Machine Design and composite fabrication. It also provided an opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge to practical situations, gain hands-on experience, and at the same time, get credit for their work. The project has been a great success and we are looking forward to competing in the race in June, 97. Introduction Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) is located in Murfreesboro, about 30 miles to the south of Nashville. MTSU, which was founded in 1911, is the fastest growing university in the state of Tennessee. Currently, we have an enrollment of approximately 18,000 students and 700 full-time faculty members. The university has five colleges; Basic and Applied Sciences, Business, Education, Liberal Arts, and Mass Communication. Engineering Technology and Industrial Studies is one of the 10 Departments under the college of Basic and Applied Sciences. We offer Engineering Technology, Industrial Technology and Pre-engineering programs.

  • Design & Race Competition of a Solar Powered Vehicle
    “-”1 Session 1532 .— . ‘DESIGN & RACE COMPETITION OF A SOLAR POWERED VEHICLE Dr. Edward M. Lenoe, Dr. Eddie Fowler United States Military Academy/ Kansas State University ABSTRACT This paper describes the performance of the USMA “Onondaga”, a solar powered vehicle which completed the recent SUNRAYCE ’95 event wherein 38 cars raced 1300 miles from Indianapolis, IN to Golden, CO. In particular, a rather simple and rugged solar array configuration, using only three diodes, was employed. Total cost of our vehicle was $33,000, including spare parts. Furthermore the entire vehicle was constructed in-house, thereby qualifying us as the lowest cost entrant, designed, built and fielded by the smallest team! We also fielded the heaviest drivers. The authors goals were to qualify, to finish the race and to determine our vehicle capabilities, and in general to learn about solar powered vehicIes. In all these, much to our gratification, we succeeded, finishing 26th overall in a field of 38, and on the last day of the race, finishing 5th! Our most satisfying event was day four, when the Onongada truly rode with the sun, covering 122.5 miles with minimal battery pack consumption. The project was initiated in August 1994, with the first semester devoted to design and the second to fabrication. During this project we had to conceive, design, procure, fabricate, test and evaluate and finally compete! Most competitors devoted two years to the project. The Onondaga was built from mid March to mid April, then subjected to 380 miles of road tests in the rolling hills of the Hudson Highlands.

  • Mtsu's Experience in Solar Car Design and the Impact on Community
    Session 1280 RIDING WITH THE SUN: MTSU’S EXPERIENCE IN SOLAR CAR DESIGN AND THE IMPACT ON COMMUNITY Saleh M. Sbenaty Department of Engineering Technology and Industrial Studies Middle Tennessee State University ABSTRACT This paper describes Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) efforts in: x promoting its Basic and Applied Sciences programs in general and the Engineering Technology program in particular, x demonstrating the impact of engineering physics and technology on the community, and x boosting environmental awareness in the Middle Tennessee area. The Department of Engineering Technology and Industrial Studies at MTSU has participated for the first time in Sunrayce 95 through its entry SOLARAIDER III. The biennial solar car race is designed to promote the use of renewable energy sources, the efficient use of energy, and innovation in engineering and technical education. The author has served as a faculty advisor to the undergraduate student team overlooking the design, construction, and testing of the solar car. Benefits of this project to MTSU students, the younger generation in particular, and the public in general are described below. INTRODUCTION Sunrayce is a biennial solar car race sponsored and organized by General Motors (GM), Electronic Data Systems (EDS) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The race is designed to promotes the use of renewable energy sources, the efficient use of energy, and innovation in engineering and technical education1. The 1,250-mile race starts in Indianapolis, Indiana and finishes nine days latter in Colorado. The competition is held in June and is open to all colleges, universities, trade schools, and other post-secondary educational institutions in North America.

  • Teaching Instrumentation Through Solar Car Racing
    Session 1359 Teaching Instrumentation through Solar Car Racing Michael J. Batchelder, Electrical and Computer Engineering Department Daniel F. Dolan, Mechanical Engineering Department South Dakota School of Mines and Technology Abstract Solar car racing has been a means of motivating hands-on engineering education through competition among North American higher education institutions. Sunrayce, and now Formula Sun and American Solar Challenge, have tested the abilities of engineering students over the past decade. Proper instrumentation of the vehicle is critical for testing during the vehicle design and for successful racing. As an important part of the solar car team, the instrumentation team not only learns technical skills, but also the soft skills of planning, managing, and working with others to reach a common goal. Introduction Focusing engineering education on projects and competitions is a popular approach to giving students experience with real open-ended design problems, teamwork, communication, and leadership1,2,3,4. ABET requires engineering programs to demonstrate that their graduates have fundamental knowledge and know how to apply it working in teams. Student teams participating in solar car racing develop not only technical skills, but also communication, project management, and teaming skills. The Center for Advanced Manufacturing and Production (CAMP)5,6 at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology promotes engineering education through team-based projects. One of these team projects is the solar car competition. Sunrayce, patterned after the World Solar Challenge in Australia, has been a biennial competition among North American higher education institutions. Students design, build, and race solar powered vehicles on secondary roads over a ten day period.
