Formula StudentCompetition in which universities design, build and run their vehicles with the aim of scoring as many points as possible in the following areas: • Design • Business Plan• Cost• Acceleration • Skid Pan • Sprint• Endurance & Fuel Economy
Key PointsWhat is Formula Student• Small engine displacement – 600cc• Very narrow coned track• Emphasis on agility not outright
power or speed

Design a centre locking wheel hub and nut system for the Formula Student Vehicle
Brief
Exploration• Performance Increase• Headline Feature• Quicker Wheel
Change-oversConstraints
• Fit the specified wheel
• Interface with other components
• Meet the requirements of the management team
Timeframe• Final designs to be
reviewed at the end of January
• Manufactured by June

Research
Longitudinal Loading:• Maximum force under braking at 1.5 G• Force per brake bobbin mount – 931 N• Force per drive stud hole – 1397 N
Expected Loads at the Hub
Lateral Loading:• Corner radius at 70mph – 63.7m• Force at outside rear tyre – 2446 N• Force required at nut – 15678 N

Maximum Loading• 931N Bearing load at each brake
bobbin mount• 1397N Bearing Load at each drive
stud hole
Development - FEA
Advantage of FEA• Weight reduction – more critical on rotational parts• Stress management – Increase low stress areas and reduce high stress areas.• More accurate factor of safety• Optimised Component

Development – General DesignFront Hub Rear Hub
• 6 Arm design• Same size bearings• Main geometry fixed
• Utilising same design front and rear• Same bearing sizes front and rear• Brake Bobbin mount method differs

Development – Drive Studs• Milled Stud
• Threaded Stud
• Press Fitted Stud

Development – Centre Locking Thread
• Accurate model of threads were created at 2mm 3mm 4mm pitch sizes
What Size Thread?
• The model configurations were put under various simulated loads using FEA
• The results were plotted onto a graph for comparison
