ROSS BRAWN OBE TEAM PRINCIPAL, MERCEDES GP PETRONAS TEAM AND FORMULA STUDENT PATRON

In my time in Formula One I have worked as a machinist, mechanic, in R&D and aerodynamics, a Technical Director and now as a Team Principal. Hence, I really appreciate the importance of practical experience. Formula Student gives the younger generation of engineers an excellent chance to develop and demonstrate their skills, dedication and determination. It is also a fantastic opportunity for students to learn vital skills outside of their engineering specialisation, such as budgeting and project management. It is this mixture that makes them so employable when they graduate and we have numerous engineers at the MERCEDES GP PETRONAS Formula One Team who competed in Formula Student, including Andrew Shovlin, our Senior Race Engineer. Having been a Patron of Formula Student for the past 6 years, I am also interested by the diversity of entries. People sometimes forget that the teams that have major set-backs during the competition are the ones that learn the most during the process. I applaud the teams who compete competitively on much lower budgets or with fewer resources from their university – it’s important practice for when they are employed in industry. I never fail to be impressed each year by the amount of talent shown by the Formula Student competitors and hope to meet as many of the teams as I can at the event.

JON HILTON FORMULA STUDENT CHAIRMAN

Welcome to IMechE Formula Student 2011 – set to be bigger and better than ever before! We accepted 10% more teams than for 2010 and will have 125 teams from 34 countries competing this year. Although we were over-subscribed and do not like turning teams away, this is extremely encouraging for the FS series across the globe and proves that it is a good formula.

We have aimed to make this year’s event more engaging for all attendees; from opening up the paddock area for displays, to holding an Acceleration Run-off to add to the excitement of the dynamic events. A small entry fee has also been introduced, to cope with the growing number of visitors each year and to support the developments for the future of the competition. I would like to thank our 2011 Partners, who we could not hold the event without; Airbus, Autodesk, E.ON, Jaguar , Mercedes-Benz HighPerformanceEngines, National Instruments and Shell. Good luck to all participating teams and I look forward to seeing your entries!

2011 EVENT PROGRAMME 3 4 INTRODUCTION.

Formula Student is one of the biggest educational motorsport events in the world. By tasking students to work as a team in developing a single-seat race , it offers them the opportunity to undertake real- life challenges and develop skills that will support them when they go on to work in industry. These core competencies include creativity and technical ability, teamwork and communication, logistics and the business-critical areas of delivering projects to budget and deadlines. The basis of the competition is that students are asked to assume that they have been asked by a manufacturer to develop a production prototype for a single-seat race car for autocross or sprint racing. The target customer for the final product is the non- professional who enjoys racing and who has high standards of performance and value for money. Formula Student has been run by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers since 1998 and since that date has seen tens of thousands of competitors through the process. By inspiring and developing engineers across a range of areas, the competition delivers the Institution’s mission of “Improving the world through engineering”. 2305students How it works in practice At the start of the academic year, university teams start to design their cars. Although there are defined safety standards, there are few restrictions on the overall design to encourage innovation. As the year goes on, all the elements of the car must combine and teams have to make important real-life choices as to engine efficiency, lightweight materials, chassis design and so forth. 107cars The conclusion of the year’s work is the July event at Silverstone Circuit. Judging teams, which include representatives from a cross-section of industries, judge every team on the comparative merits of their cars. All elements of the projects are scrutinised from design, cost of construction and fuel economy to the viability of the marketing plan. More about the scoring can be found on page 6. Green new world 34countries As an indication of how Formula Student is responsive to societal drivers and trends, a low carbon category (Class 1A) was launched in 2008 to supplement the main category (Class 1). The cars in this class compete in the same dynamic events as the petrol powered vehicles; the difference between the two classes is that in Class 1A more emphasis is placed on the amount of carbon emissions produced both on the track and in the manufacture of the vehicle. To read more about the low carbon Class 1A, see page 11. ONEwinner

There is also a mandatory stop, driver change and hot restart that really tests reliability and the team’s ability to efficiently make changes to pedal positions, seats etc.

Fuel Economy 100 points Efficient design is about more than the way the car looks. Customers will expect their car to be as green and fuel efficient as possible. To avoid penalties cars must achieve a corrected mileage of 26 litres per 100km during the endurance trial.

Class 1A teams are judged on design and their business presentation, in the exact same way as the teams in the main category. However, they are judged on the sustainability of their vehicle instead of the cost. They also compete in the same dynamic events – Acceleration, Skid pad, Sprint and Endurance - as the petrol powered vehicles, except more emphasis is placed on the amount of carbon emissions produced. In order to understand how the Class 1A cars perform and what changes might be required to enable all the cars to compete on equal footing, the organisers of Formula Student introduced a mandatory electronic data logger. The boxes measure the current and voltage passing between the electrical storage (battery) and the drive motor(s) on the electrically powered cars, essentially There is one area where Formula an electric meter, to accurately determine the electrical Student is at the cutting edge of automotive consumption of the vehicles during the Endurance event. technology, and that is in the fi eld of alternative The device also acts as a data-logger for IMechE and the fuels.

2011 EVENT PROGRAMME 19 ❝I want to help build a new energy future.❞

Developing the engineers of the future In just a few years, how energy is made in the UK is going to look very different. We’ve only got finite resources of coal and gas, while We’re on it concerns about their environmental impact are growing. But at E.ON, we’re investing our energies and some £50m into new technologies and approaches over the next 10 years and tackling some of the world’s greatest energy challenges head on. Bring your big ideas to us and you could be part of it.

Engineering Graduate Programmes By joining E.ON, you’ll work alongside passionate, like-minded engineers and really get under the skin of our business. We’ll send you on a series of placements, both at home and abroad, so you can get the big picture about what we do, develop your technical and leadership skills and decide where you’d eventually like to specialise. And, thanks to the excellent training and development opportunities through our Engineering Academy, you can work towards Chartered status too: putting you in the driving seat when it comes to tackling tomorrow’s energy challenges. We’re an equal opportunities employer.
