Dr. Kevin Boutsen
As our mentor, Dr. Boutsen was extremely supportive and provided constructive feedback all throughout the duration of the project, both on the technical and methodological side. Our team had weekly meetings with him and met additional days during the week when needed. His guidance played an important role and helped us have a successful project.
Dr. Andres Tremante
Dr. Tremante was our advisor. With his extensive knowledge in the field, he gave us advise on technical aspects, especially during early stages, which helped us narrow down the approach for the project.
Dr. Tony Thomas
A important stage in our project was performing simulations, since we had to ensure that the models, as well as different parameters, were set properly. Dr. Thomas helped us in this stage and was always willing to answered any of our questions.
Panther Motorsports
The Panther Motorsports team played an important role in our project. They were not only our stakeholders, but also let us to use their resources, in terms of materials and sponsors .
GoEngineer
Provided 3D printing services and the material to print our final intake manifold design out of Ultem 1010. The work closely with the team and supported us to have a successful final system.
The Creative Workshop
The dynamometer used to performed the physical testing to obtained the power and torque, was courtesy of The Creative Workshop. Their team was very supportive and offered a welcoming environment every time we went to their shop.
GTS3D
Thanks to the PLA filaments provided by GTS3D, we were able to 3D print all the necessary prototypes to check for proper fit and perform physical testing.
GT Power Suit
Gamma Technologies gave us two licenses to use the GT Power Suit. Although, the engine model could not be fully implemented due to problems with the server, having the opportunity software to learn about the software was important for the team members.
3DChimera
Scanned the injector housing, which allowed of to have more accurate dimensions of it, that helped during the design stage of the project.
