Cadets from ME491 Present their Final Engineering Projects

ME491 Engineering Design Projects: Cadets from ME491 Mechanical Power plants presented their final Engineering Design Projects. The cadet groups worked to analyze, design, and 3D print a functional engine component for a quarter-scale V8 model. One section equipped the engine with a supercharger and the other outfitted it with a twin-turbocharger. The work was followed by Mr. Bob Henderson, Editor at the Haynes Publishing Group. Haynes produces automotive technical literature and is the manufacturer of the engine model used in this design project. Special thanks to Mr. Rod Wilson and Mr. Frank Blackmon from D/C&ME for their expertise, guidance, and support with the additive manufacturing production of the intake, exhaust, and forced induction components.
