Which of the following statements regarding the Brake System is false?
See FSG rules 2023: T6.1.10
The previous season you could recuperate only 27% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 69% of the initially stored energy. Knowing that you had 6.3 kWh of energy in your accumulator during the last season, how much energy must your new accumulator have, if you assume, that it’s the same length and speed? Give answer in kWh
E_new = E_old * (1+0.27)/(1+0.69)
You want to drive with a Lithium Polymer Cell with 3.2 Ah and weighing 70 g. Which of the following configurations would be allowed by the rules? Hint: Unorm = 3.7 V, Umax = 4.2 V
For this Wheatstone Bridge based NTC temperature measurement circuit, which is the lowest voltage measurement (VAB) that is possible to obtain at 60ºC? (NTC B: 3435 +/-1%) Give answer in Volts rounded to two decimal points.
Your BSPD has been triggered although the driver did not touch the driving pedal. What could have gone wrong? (multiple choice)
How long will it take to discharge C1 below 60V using the following constant current sink if it is initially charged at 565V? (MOSFET’s VGSth: 4V) Give answer to two decimal places in secs.
Circuit’s current: MOSFET will operate in linear zone, close to the activation voltage. Therefore, as VGSth is 4V, VS can be taken as 8V. From these 8V and the 47R current limiting resistor, the discharge current of the circuit will be 8/47->0,17A As the constant current discharge of a capacitor depends on capacity, as V=i·t/C-> t=V·C/i=(565-60)·0,0012/0,17=3,56s
A capacitor with a capacitance of 100 μF is currently charged to a voltage of 199.8V. How much additional energy is needed to charge it to a voltage of 301.4V. Give answer to 4 significant figures in Joules
W = 0.5 * C * U^2
∆W = W_end – W_start = 0.5 * C ((U_end)^2 – (U_start)^2)

Your team is considering two languages, Verilog and VHDL, for programming an FPGA. Which languages could be used?
Your head of powertrain has found a battery cell with excellent specifications and yet cheap. He decides upon a 142s2p accumulator configuration using the cells with a capacity of 5.8 Ah. The manufacturer specifies an internal impedance of 1.5 mOhm. However, after a while you notice the cells are of horrible quality and their real capacity varies significantly leading to an unbalanced accumulator.
He performed experiements to find an approximation of the cells SoC relation to their open-circuit voltage (EMF) as shown in the following figure:
Assume due to imbalance, exactly half of the accumulators cells are at 40% SoC and half at 80% SoC. What current will be drawn at the maximum allowed power usage? Give answer in Amps to nearest whole number
40% SoC -> 3.7V and 1.6 mΩ and 80% SoC -> 3.8V and 1.2 mΩ, total open-circuit voltage
71*3.7 + 71*3.8 = 532.5V
Total impedance = 71 * (1.6m/2) + 71*(1.2m/2) = 99.4mΩ
V*I = I^2*R * 80kW
I = 155 A

The previous season you could recuperate only 25% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 63% of the initially stored energy. Knowing that you had 9.6 kWh of energy in your accumulator during the last season, how much energy must your new accumulator have, if you assume, that it’s the same length and speed? Give answer in kWh to one decimal place.
E_new = E_old * (1+0.25)/(1+0.63)
A vehicle with the mass 190kg, wheelbase 1,56m and tyre static radius 222mm is weighed. Scales measure 83kg (front) and 107kg (rear) when the car measured on the perfectly flat ground and the same values when the front axle is elevated by 0,85m. What is the car’s COG height? Give answer to the nearest whole number in mm
Fb‘ = m*g (at rear axle while front tyres are lifted)
Fb = m*g (at rear axle while car standing on ground)
Fg = m*g (at COG)
L = wheel base
sin(θ) = H/L
r= radius of tyre
Calculate delta_h1 and delta_h2 in mm (integers), seprate the value with a comma, no space in between, delta_h1 is the first value (exp.: 126,4)
During last year acceleration a top speed of 100 km/h was reached. Due to big improvements in the new drivetrain, the new vehicle reaches a top speed of 120 km/h. The aerodynamics chief has some worries about the stability of the rear wing bracing due to the higher aerodynamics load. Given the geometry below, by how much % does the bearing force in point A change in comparison to last year? (The aerodynamic package did not change and therefore some values can be assumed for both vehicles). Give answer rounded to one decimal place.
