Research
What are the requirements of our product?
Catamaran Cover: split up to two main parts; a battery box cover and electronics cover
Both parts need:
need non conductive material on the inside
strength
access cover
Battery Box Cover
possibility of adding ceramic fibre / ceramic blanket / ceramic paper on the inside to contain heat
able to service the battery modules
entire area above modules must be open (able to see it ) when cover is open
modules will be installed by lowering them vertically into their slots
Rear Electronics cover
during egress, this part will be climbed over by someone
must be strong to hold people’s weight
current goal: separating high voltage and low voltage sections inside rear electronics enclosure
there will be two supports inside the cover, running along the length of the catamaran
(will later update on this when CAD/structural is decided)
current proposal for CAD – Rear Electronics Enclosure Proposed Layout
Left Side – Higher Voltage Right Side – Lower Voltage
access cover needs
power supply input
AUX battery input
USB ports for phone charging
Other things to include are: interesting research, images, links, recap of regulations, etc.
Risk/Unknowns Identification
What are the major technical risks or unknowns associated with this project?
Prompts for areas of investigation include regulation risks (i.e. headlight brightness doesn’t meet regs), mechanical risks (i.e headlight melting from hight temperature), manufacturing/assembly risks (i.e how does headlight mount to aero body?)
Risk/Unknown Mitigation Concepting
What can we do to mitigate these aforementioned risks/unknowns?
Risk/Unknown | Order of Importance | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|
i.e Headlight brightness doesn’t meet regs | 1 | Use brightness sensor to compare our headlights with listed regulation standards |
