Utilizing the thermodynamic properties of E85 to increase the specific efficiency of a high specific output single cylinder Formula SAE engine

Creator:

Duncan, Derek N.

Abstract:

Formula SAE is a collegiate engineering competition that has participants from around the globe. Of the 1000 points available throughout the event, 100 (10%) are dedicated to the fuel efficiency of the student built race cars. Competition rules allow either gasoline or E85, a mix of 85% ethanol and 15%...
