About the Event:

Presentation:

Lithium Ion Batteries (LIB) are quickly becoming the new source of energy for on-road and off-road vehicles. As LIB energy densities increase, so too do the level of hazards, such as in the form of heat and gas. Regulating agencies are becoming aware of these hazards and are reacting by creating protocols to test the safety integrity of LIB packs.

Companies who’ve tested liquid and gaseous vehicles within their facilities have a deep understanding of the risks associated with those types of energy sources within their building. Now, however, many are questioning the similarities and differences between testing with traditional fuels and testing with LIB packs. We will compare the differences between designing a traditional fuel source test cell and the design of a test cell that contains a LIB. We will discuss abuse bunkers and what cautions to be aware of when designing a LIB abuse bunker. We will share heat and gas release data used to determine the air exchange rate in a LIB test cell and abuse bunker, and touch upon the emissions mitigation techniques, such as a scrubber or RTO system, used to manage the gas and particles expelled during a LIB thermal runaway event. We will discuss the defense-in-depth strategy used to protect a LIB testing facility and its personnel, including blast panel area, gas/heat detection, air exchange rates, electrical classification and the abundance of water, to name a few. Finally, how we consider prevention, detection, and reaction techniques to ensure a safe and effective testing environment.

This presentation is unique in that we will share heat and gas related information that is difficult to acquire given the emerging nature of LIB abuse testing. We will reference many white papers and national lab studies used in our calculations, information that was used to extrapolate pack level data from single cell data.

Guest Speakers:

Jeremy Lang, Project Manager and Jacob Weber, Mechanical Engineer (PE) from Affiliated Engineers, Inc.

Jeremy has spent the past 20 years in the engine and vehicle testing market. Starting in controls and automation, Jeremy traveled globally installing, programming and commissioning test cells, and more recently, leading the design of those facilities. Now, following the market trend to full electrification, Jeremy is applying the facility design practices learned in engine and vehicle test cells containing hazardous fuels to the lithium ion battery testing market, with some caveats.

Generac and AEI have been partners for years. AEI has enabled growth in Generac’s engineering test and development facilities, driving record expansion. Come learn about AEI’s technology hosted by Generac at their Kern Auditorium.

2020 Clean Snowmobile Challenge
2020-03-09 08:00 - 2020-03-14 20:00 | Keweenaw Research Center, 23620 Airpark Blvd, Calumet, Michigan, 49913, United States
As February draws to a close that means we are just around the corner form the SAE Annual Clean Snowmobile Challenge in the Keweenaw Peninsula where they currently have had over 150 inches of snow this year.

About Clean Snowmobile Challenge:

The SAE International Clean
Snowmobile Challenge (CSC) program is an engineering design competition for
undergraduate and graduate students. The program provides participants with the
opportunity to enhance their engineering design and project management skills
by applying learned classroom theories in a challenging competition that tests
their designs to reengineer an existing snowmobile to reduce emissions and
noise. Participants’ modified snowmobiles will compete in a variety of events
including emissions, noise, fuel economy/endurance, acceleration, handling,
static display, cold start and design.

The CSC Rules Committee makes
changes to the competition each year to keep the competition fresh and to
present new engineering challenges. CSC is primarily an “engine” competition
however the underlying theme has remained consistent to engineer a clean and
quiet trail sled. Current trail sleds are engineered to these standards, but it
is possible to achieve more. Noise levels can be reduced, and cleaner fuels can
lead to lower emissions.

How to get Involved:

The Milwaukee Section of SAE is responsible for helping with this event, including judging reports written by the collegiate teams entering the competition. Your SAE Milwaukee Section needs you to help judge reports. To volunteer to judge papers, please contact Jay Meldrum (jmeldrum@mtu.edu). Judges typically read a minimum of four reports in the category they are most comfortable with (IC engines or electric). There are also volunteer opportunities during the competition. Please go to http://saecleansnowmobile.com/ for more volunteer opportunities. A schedule of events is included in this newsletter for those who are interested in helping at competition.

Attending:

If you plan on attending the SAE Clean Snowmobile Challenge this year, please reach out to the Milwaukee SAE Section at sae@c2cintegration.com or 856-313-0581 so we can help connect you with other members that are going.

Engineers Presentation: Building the First "Steamship" in History
2019-10-08 16:30 - 20:30 | Discovery World, 500 N Harbor Dr, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 53202, United States
About the Event:

In 1807, a brilliant, creative, and controversial American by the name of Robert Fulton declared his intent to build an experimental “steamboat” which would be used to initiate a continuous passenger service between New York City and Albany, New York. With the success of his North River Steam Boat, Fulton showed that it was possible to use an artificial power to alter a person’s location and the amount of time it took to change it. In so doing, he also broke through the enormous psychological barrier that had existed in people’s minds; it was, in fact, possible to overcome Nature to practical effect.

It took time for many people to accept Robert Fulton’s triumph as the truth.

One man who did not need to be convinced was a sloop captain named Moses Rogers. He had witnessed the first successful runs of the North River Steam Boat to Albany, and the experience gave him the fever–steamboat fever.

Moses soon became one of the first steamboat captains in history, taking command of one of Fulton’s first rivals, the Phoenix. In his new profession, Moses learned not only the technicalities of this revolutionary invention, but the peculiarities of a traveling public just getting used to this new mode of transport.

In the years immediately following Fulton’s success, running these steamboats on rivers, lakes and bays became a normal and accepted part of American life. But taking such a vessel on a voyage across the ocean was a different proposition altogether. Experienced mariners didn’t think it could be done. These early steamboats, they declared, were just too flimsy and unwieldy to withstand the dangers of the deep.

But Moses believed otherwise. Combining his knowledge of the old mode of transport (sail) with the new mode of transport (steam), he set out to design a vessel that was capable of overcoming the many dangers of the sea. This craft would be not a steamboat, but a “steamship,” the first of its kind. She was named Savannah.

This Engineers Presentation will show how Captain Rogers designed and built this revolutionary vessel…two centuries ago!

About the Presenter:

John Laurence Busch is an independent historian who focuses upon the interaction between humanity and technology, specializing in the first generation of steam-powered vessels. He has devoted years of research to discovering the true story of Captain Moses Rogers and the steamship Savannah.

The result is STEAM COFFIN, described by numerous book reviewers as the definitive account of what truly is America’s sea saga.

STEAM COFFIN has received positive book reviews from more than two dozen periodicals in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia.

John has made over 400 presentations on Captain Rogers and the Savannah to a wide variety of audiences, stretching from Maine to Puerto Rico to California, and across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe.

SAE February 2019 Event - DeltaHawk Engines
2019-02-27 11:00 - 13:30 | DeltaHawk Engines, 2300 South Street, Racine, WI, 53404, United States
The development of a lightweight, compact, simple and reliable Heavy Fuel reciprocating engine for aerospace applications has been attempted by numerous companies. Most of these engines are derivatives of automotive engines. DeltaHawk Engines, Inc. of Racine, Wisconsin has spent well over a decade developing a purpose-built aviation engine targeted both for General Aviation and UAS applications. The goals of this project have been to produce an engine that burns heavy fuels with high fuel efficiency, manned-aircraft reliability and very low maintenance. With sufficient funding now in-hand, the engine is nearing completion, with FAA Certification and commencement of production targeted in 2019.

Aviation engines present a challenging set of problems for engineers, many of which are unique to aviation. The engine requirements include race-engine like performance, combined with very low weight, compact size, and extraordinary reliability and durability. The added challenge is that these engines must meet extremely high regulatory standards and oversight from aviation authorities. Light General Aviation aircraft have historically utilized air-cooled, spark-ignition engines, literally derivatives of World War II technology. These engines burn specialized aviation gasoline, which is under environmental pressure.
DeltaHawk has developed a Jet-Fuel powered General Aviation engine that brings the advantages of diesel technology to aviation.
This presentation will give an overview of the history of aviation diesels, the market drivers, and a look at the DeltaHawk engine architecture.
