IntroductionHow would it be if the students get to work and apply the homework problems calculations into a real car? This project is one of the best opportunities for the group members in order to face the real engineering duty. The group started from identifying the vehicle information and gets to know about the vehicle features and how things work. After manually measuring the data needed from the car to solve the homework problems, the group came up with reasonable results beside that, there are numbers assumed by the group members for solving the problems.

Part 2. Homework Problems
HW 1A
Using the data found in part 1, answer the following questions.
a) Find the longitudinal position of the combined CG.
x=∑ (weight ∙ X )
∑ weight=4541 lbs¿¿
b) Determine the axle loads of the loaded vehicle.
Balancing the moment about front axle.

R f=2558.63 lbs
c) Find the vertical position of the combined CG.

d) What are the axle loads when it accelerates at 3m/sec2?

Balancing moments about the rear axle

e) What are the axle loads when the trailer shown in the figure is connected up? The trailer
hitch on the car is 90mm behind the rear axle.
Balancing moments about hitch
610 kg ( 9.81m / s2 ) (2.8m )=Rt(3.25m)
Rt=5155.5 N=1159.0 lbs
Balancing the force in order to find the force at hitch

f) Because of the high rear axle load on the car, the owner installs a “load-equalizing” hitch.
This hitch puts a torque of 1500Nm (=13276.1lbs*in) into the connection point as
illustrated in the figure below. What are the wheel loads (car and trailer) with the load
equalizer?
Balancing the moment about the hitch.

Rr=2370.58 lbs
HW 2
There are 3 problems in the HW 2. We are going to use all data we measured.
Q1. If the vehicle is running at 80km/hr up a 2% grade. The drag from aerodynamics and
rolling resistance is 572N. It is operating in third gear, which has a ratio of 1.2, and has a
final drive ratio of 3.5.With the given data and the measurements in part 1, answer the
following questions.
(a) What is the engine speed (RPM)?

(b) How much torque (N-m) does the engine develop to maintain a constant speed if the
driveline efficiency is 91%.
4541 lb = 2059.88 kg = 20207.45 N; 13 in = 0.33 m
Ft = 572 N + 0.02 * 20207.45 N = 976.15 N
Tt = Ft * r = 976.15 N * 0.33 m = 322.13 Nm
T2 = Tt
Nr∗Nf∗η= 322.13Nm
1.21∗3.5∗0.91=83.59 Nm
(c) If the engine has a brake-specific fuel consumption of 0.3 kg/kw-h at these conditions,
what is the fuel consumption (kg/km)? Also give it in liters/100 km, assuming gasoline
weighs 0.78 kg/liter.
Power developed by the engine = T2 * w1 = 83.59 Nm * 349.47 rad/s = 29.21 KW
Fuel consumption = 29.21 KW * 0.3 kg /hrkw

Q2. The engine of a vehicle has a moment of inertia of 0.277 kg-m2. It is operating in first
gear (ratio of 7.53), has a final drive ratio of 4.11, and the tire radius is 0.508m.
(a) What is its effective mass of the engine?
M eff = I∗N2
r2 =0.277 kg−m2∗(7.53∗4.11)2
(0.33m)2 =2436.27 kg
(b) What is the “mass factor” for this condition?
Mass Factor = M+M eff
M=2059.88 kg+2436.27 kg
2059.88 kg=2.18
Q3. The vehicle can accelerate to 300mph in a quarter mile. The performance can be
modeled rather simply by assuming that the engine delivers constant power during
acceleration, and neglecting rolling resistance and aerodynamic drag forces.
(a) Derive and solve the differential equation relating velocity to distance for this case.

HW3
Q. You have been asked to help design the brake system on a new light truck. The truck
must meet FMVSS 105 performance requirements for deceleration (take this to mean 20
ft/sec2 lightly loaded, and 19 ft/sec2 fully loaded on an 81 Skid Number surface), as well
as corporate requirements for 0.25 g braking performance on a 30 Skid Number surface.
The important specifications of the vehicle are:
L=108.5” Rtire=13”
Brake gains (per wheel) 0.22 Nm/kPa (front) 0.15Nm/kPa (rear)
lightly-loaded fully-loaded
CG height 24" 24.4"
front axle weight 2491lbs 2558.63lbs
rear axle weight 2050lbs 2381.07lbs
You are to select a pressure proportioning system (break pressure and rise rate) and then
determine the efficiency of the system for the lightly-loaded and fully-loaded conditions. Do this
via the following steps:
(a) Calculate and plot the four performance triangles on the front/ rear brake force diagram
for all conditions. (Show your calculations for the intercept points.)
First step is to find the maximum front and rear brake forces for each condition.

(b) Select the parameters for a proportioning valve (pressure break point and slope) to be
used and show it on the diagram
The diagram below shows the performance triangles for this vehicle. Since the brake
gains were given be proportioning line must have an initial slope of 0.220.15
=1.467 . this is
slope is satisfactory for the lower triangles, but must change a higher slope to meet the
high lower triangles.
It would be reasonable to select the pressure break point for the pressure proportioning
valve equivalent to 4003.4 N (900 lb) of force on the front brakes. The associated
pressure is:
Pa=4003.4 N∗0.33m
2∗0.22N−m /Kpa=3002.55 kPa
At this pressure the rear brake force is:
F r=2∗0.15N− m
Kpa∗3002.55 Kpa
0.33m=2729.6N = 613.64 lbf
A reasonable pressure proportioning can be obtained by choosing the second segment of
the line to go to a rear brake force of 6227.51 N (1400 lb) when the front brakes go up to
13345 N (3000 lb). The associated brake pressures at this condition are:
Paf=13345 N∗0.33m
2∗0.22N−m /Kpa=10008.75Kpa
Par=6227.51N∗0.33m2∗0.15 N−m /Kpa
=6850.26 Kpa
The slope for the proportioning is:
S=∆Par
∆Paf= 6850.26−3002.55
10008.75−3002.55=0.549
The proportioning valve is denoted as 3002.55
0.549

ConclusionThe following major assumptions that the team has made so far where included in the homework
problems and applied resulting not actual results:
Gross Vehicle Weight
Static Front Wheel Load(Rf)
Static Rare Wheel Load(Rr)
The Break gains, CG heights, and Horizontal location of passenger CG.
Last but not least, the project was one of the best ways to learn about real life vehicle. The group was
facing lots of problems. One of the problems that the group faced is identifying the vehicle, the
engine, and the tire ID. The group googled it and get the answer which states that the information
should be inside the hood behind the engine in a silver sticker. Also, measuring the value was one of
a kind experience to the group when trying to measure the lightly loaded and fully loaded.
