Desenvolvimento de um dispositivo de plausibilidade do sistema de freios para fórmula sae

Abstract

When it comes to a prototype of Formula SAE type, they are in constant evolution and modifications, always looking for the current regulation as the design limitation. Still, many technologies can be employed in these prototypes. An important technology for the performance of the prototype on the track is the use of an electronic throttle control, thus, the general objective of the research is to develop a brake system plausibility device (BSPD), which is a system obligatorily required by SAE regulations when the Formula team decides to use an electronic throttle control, ensuring safety in prototype tests and competitions. Therefore, the research was divided into 4 stages, namely: reviewing and interpreting the current rules of the competition to which the prototype is destined; define the initial idea of the device itself; perform the electronic simulations of the system, and finally develop the modeling of the printed circuit board and its connections. As a theoretical basis for the development of the research, the regulation of the year 2021 was used. As a result of the simulations carried out, it is concluded that the project presented a result within what was expected, with the methodology used for the development of the device satisfactory and the same ready to be manufactured the moment the team decides to use an electronic accelerator. Thus, a cycle of 5 years in the FORMULA UFSM team is concluded with the development of a material that can contribute to the constant improvement of the performance of the team's prototypes.
