spyder Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Formula E Gen2 Released! Batteries included… The outstanding Formula E Gen2 car has finally arrived! A complete redesign to the Gen1 cars, the Gen2 car features more power and longevity, boasting double the energy storage capacity of the Gen1 car, meaning it can complete a whole race without having to change car mid-race. With 250kW of power, the Gen2 will accelerate from 0-100km/h in 2.8-seconds and go on to a top speed of 280km/h. This release of the Formula E Gen2 is not just about the car itself. We have been hard at work adding in new physics features to enable the very latest of brake-by-wire technology. You might ask, what does this mean? Brake-by-wire in layman’s terms simply means that the entire braking circuit is handled ‘electronically’ based on the amount of pressure you put on the brake pedal (kind of like your home sim rig!). This electronic signal from the brake pedal is then split between the ‘electric motor’ and the ‘brake rotor’. In real life, the balance of this split is up to the race team engineer. Engineers will seek to maximize the motor regeneration of the battery. This means the brake-by-wire system will use the maximum negative torque capability (braking power) of the electric motor before starting to apply force to the physical brake disc. The brake discs will only kick in if the requested torque needed for braking exceeds what the electric motor is capable of. However, given that the rear brakes will then struggle to generate any temperature, an engineer may choose to have some force applied to the discs just to ensure that the carbon discs don’t glaze over. This is in addition to the absence of a rear brake duct for the Formula E. Our new system’s algorithm is currently based on this optimal balance. What this all means….mash that brake pedal and watch your battery charge up!

andre Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 ABB FIA Formula E – Gen3 Car Formula E Gen3 Car User-Guide Required Controls There are two new controls you’ll need to map: Increment Electric Motor Map Decrement Electric Motor Map You’ll find these under the electronics tab. You’ll also need Arm Attack Mode, if you don’t already have that mapped. Going from left to right, we have: Engine mode. The engine mode is in red, there are four total modes, 100kW, this is for safety car periods, 250kW, this is not normally used, 300kW, this is normal race power, and 350kW, this is automatically used with attack mode. SoC and Battery bar. This will show your battery amount in a number, and a bar to show how much battery remains. If you change your ‘Battery Units’ setting, it will display the remaining amount in kW, or percentage, depending on your choice. M Temp, this is the temperature of the motor. Speed, this shows your current speed. Brake Temp, this shows your front brake temperatures, there are no rear brakes, so we have no need to display those. Previous, this shows battery used on the last lap. Purple box, this will show your current lap time. Bias, this shows brake torque bias. Tire Temp, this shows the current temperatures of the tires. Target, this shows the amount of battery you can use per lap to make the end of the race. Note, this will be blank in practice sessions. Gear, this shows what gear you’re in. Batt Usage, this shows the amount of battery you’ve used this lap. The number can go negative if you regen more than you use. White box, this is the lap time delta. Regen bar, this will show how much you’re regening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
