When Bazil speaks to K through 12 girls, she wants to make it clear that they have career choices. “Because we’re trying to grow the pipeline, we want to make sure that they realize they can be great scientists, mathematicians and engineers.

  • Milwaukee Section Newsletter
    SOCIETY OF AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERS Milwaukee Section Newsletter December 2011 - UPDATE www.milwaukeesae.com Hybrid Drive Trains Joint Meeting with ASME Pewaukee, WI - Wednesday January 18th, 2012 Waukesha County Technical College Industrial Building Energy Recovery and Storage Technology for Automobiles NOTE: Due to a scheduling conflict with General Motors, the January Section meeting date and topic have changed slightly. The changes are reflected in this newsletter update. We appreciate your flexibility with this matter. Meeting Abstract This month, we go under the hood of a new kind of drive train, one of which we will see much more as time passes. In joint session with our local section of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), we learn about a hybrid gas/electric drive system as implemented by Toyota, branded the Hybrid Synergy Drive. We will receive an overview of the system as well as an understanding of the development process and technical advantages over competing designs. Toyota hybrid vehicles are often referred to as a combined hybrid because they are powered by both gasoline and electric power. Key hybrid components include: regenerative braking; two electric motors and generators; internal combustion engine; the Power Split Device to increase fuel efficiency and improve performance; a vacuum flask to store Cut away of Toyota hybrid drive hot coolant; a "stealth" mode that lets the car operate only on electric power for a short period of time and a sealed NiMH battery pack for easy charging and prolonged battery life. Our presenters have a strong practical knowledge about our topic. Don McGreer, with more than 30 years at Toyota, is an instructor at the Training Center at Toyota.

  • Powertrain Optimization of a Series Hybrid Race Car
    Powertrain optimization of a series hybrid race car By Albert Mathews August 2009 Department of Mechanical Engineering McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada, H3A 2K6 A thesis submitted to McGill University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering © Albert Mathews 2009 ii ABSTRACT In recent years, we have witnessed the introduction of hybrid powertrains into the world of automobile racing. When compared to their conventional counter parts, hybrid powertrains demonstrate increased complexity with added degrees of freedom and technical barriers. For this reason, optimization of these systems becomes significantly more difficult requiring novel techniques. This thesis documents the work performed to develop simulation techniques intended for the optimization of a series hybrid powertrain which was itself designed for an open wheeled, single seat race vehicle. The methodology employs computer simulation techniques such as driver-in- the-loop and forward facing powertrain models to optimize the vehicle powertrain for a specific set of known race conditions. Data obtained from an existing vehicle and its individual components, was used in the creation and validation of the models developed for this work. The conclusions of the optimization process agree reasonably with the results from track testing of a subsequent vehicle equipped with a powertrain design based on the work performed. The simulation techniques employed here realized significant improvement in the vehicle performance and provided the ability to optimize the powertrain for any set of known race conditions. iii RÉSUMÉ Tout récemment, la motorisation hybride a fait son entrée dans le monde de la course automobile. Ce type de motorisation est beaucoup plus complexe à gérer et à optimiser qu’une motorisation conventionnelle à moteur thermique.
