Abstract
  • This project analyzes, tests, and redesigns an environmental control system for Global Formula Racing’s (GFR) dynamometer. It seeks to develop a working system to test GFR’s car engine under air conditions similar to those faced during competition. A model is developed to predict the performance of the environmental control system, and the model is validated through comparison to physical testing. Based on the model and testing results, a new vapor compression system is recommended to replace the existing unit for future testing. Key Words: Environmental Controls, Test Cell, Dynamometer Testing
