How many Fsae teams are there?
Every year, 600 teams from more than 20 countries compete to design and build a Formula-style racing car that takes automotive innovation to a whole new level.
What is an electric powertrain?
Electric powertrain systems include the main components that generate and deliver power to the road surface for fully electric, hybrid electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle applications.
What is EV powertrain?
An EV’s powertrain is responsible for taking energy stored in the vehicle’s battery system and supplying it to the motors. The amount of power that it takes to move a fully loaded vehicle is enormous, and delivery needs to be instantaneous and predictable.
How do I join a Fsae team?
To join CSUN’s FSAE team as an engineer, you first have to volunteer during the summer and become familiar with the team procedures, culture, and shop. You also need to submit an application with your resume one month before the current year’s competition to be considered.

How fast do Fsae cars go?
Sporting a push-button shifter for the custom-designed Engine Control Unit and running on a tank of ethanol, the car maxes out at around 85 miles per hour.
What is Fsae racing?
Formula SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) is a series of international competitions in which university teams compete to design and manufacture the best performing racecars.
Do electric cars need transmissions?
Electric cars don’t require multi-speed transmissions because of the so-called “engine” in an electric car, an electric motor. While internal combustion engines require multiple gears with different ratios for power output, electric motors produce a consistent amount of torque at any given RPM within a specific range.
Which motor is used in electric vehicle?
synchronous. There are two types of AC electric motor used to create traction for an electric vehicle: asynchronous (aka induction) and synchronous. In an asynchronous, or induction, motor, the rotor is pulled into a spin, constantly trying to “catch up” with the rotating magnetic field created by the stator.
When was Fsae founded?
1981
In 1981, SAE International (formerly known as Society of Automotive Engineers) developed and managed the first Formula SAE® (FSAE®) student competition with assistance of Ron Matthews, Professor at University of Texas.
Why choose an electric FSAE vehicle?
electric FSAE vehicle. The hope for this design is to not only be an effective and efficient system that guarantees the performance of the drivetrain components, but to serve as a guide for the electric vehicle’s cooling system design for years to come. Although the real world performance of the cooling
What is a Formula SAE Electric vehicle cooling system?
Abstract 3 Abstract The purpose of this project was to design and implement an effective cooling system for the Formula SAE Electric Vehicle. The main components of the drivetrain of the electric vehicle are the motor and the motor controller. The cooling system was designed to cool the motor and motor controller to ensure
How does the Sasae electric vehicle work?
SAE Electric Vehicle. The main components of the drivetrain of the electric vehicle are the motor and the motor controller. The cooling system was designed to cool the motor and motor controller to ensure that they operate in an optimal temperature range thus increasing drivetrain efficiency and ultimately improving vehicle performance.
What is the purpose of the FSAE design process?
The purpose of this design process was to research, design, and create an effective cooling system for an electric FSAE vehicle. The hope for this design is to not only be an effective and efficient system that guarantees the performance of the drivetrain components, but to serve as a guide for the electric
