Abstract
En esta memoria de título se aborda el diseño conceptual de un vehículo Formula SAE eléctrico para la Universidad de Concepción, el cual se considera como un sistema complejo, que involucra subsistemas mecánicos, eléctricos, electrónicos y de control. Ante la futura participación institucional en la competencia y la falta de una arquitectura de referencia, se propone desarrollar una arquitectura de sistema que estructura el desarrollo del monoplaza y gestione su complejidad usando principios de Ingeniería de Sistemas y enfoques MBSE, según INCOSE.
Para lograr esto se sigue un proceso iterativo que parte del análisis de la misión y la identificación de stakeholders, necesidades y requisitos del vehículo. A partir de esta se establece el Concepto de Operaciones y el Ciclo de Vida Operacional, para luego desarrollar la arquitectura del sistema, a través de una descomposición sucesiva del vehículo y sus sistemas habilitadores.
Los principales resultados incluyen la formulación de una arquitectura que organiza el sistema FSAE en segmentos, elementos y subsistemas coherentes, articulados en torno a cinco grandes grupos funcionales del vehículo y sus sistemas de apoyo. El modelo registra 197 requisitos estructurados y asignados jerárquicamente, lo que permite seguir su cumplimiento a lo largo de la PBS y de la WBS. El modelo energético obtiene órdenes de magnitud de energía, masa y costo del acumulador consistentes con referencias FSAE, y demuestra la utilidad de integrar cálculos de dimensionamiento dentro de un entorno MBSE para evaluar tempranamente la factibilidad técnica y económica de la solución.
Se determina que la arquitectura planteada constituye una base metodológica aplicable a ciclos futuros del diseño. Este trabajo proporciona un ejemplo de aplicación académica de la Ingeniería de Sistemas a vehículos de competencia universitaria, sirviendo como ejemplo exportable a otros equipos que deseen estructurar su proyecto en un marco de Ingeniería en Sistemas.
In this thesis the conceptual design of an electric Formula SAE vehicle for the University of Concepción is addressed. The vehicle is treated as a complex system that involves mechanical, electrical, electronic and control subsystems. In view of the university’s planned participation in the competition and the absence of a reference architecture, a system architecture is proposed to structure the development of the single-seater and to manage its complexity using Systems Engineering principles and MBSE approaches, in line with INCOSE. An iterative process is followed, starting from the mission analysis and the identification of stakeholders, needs and vehicle requirements. On this basis, the Concept of Operations and the Operational Life Cycle are established, and the system architecture is then developed through a successive decomposition of the vehicle and its enabling systems. The main results include the formulation of an architecture that organizes the FSAE system into coherent segments, elements and subsystems, structured around five major functional groups of the vehicle and its supporting systems. The model registers 197 requirements, structured and hierarchically allocated, which allows their compliance to be traced across the Product Breakdown Structure (PBS) and the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The energy model provides order-of-magnitude estimates of the accumulator’s energy, mass and cost that are consistent with FSAE references, and demonstrates the usefulness of integrating sizing calculations within an MBSE environment to support early assessment of the technical and economic feasibility of the solution. It is concluded that the proposed architecture provides a methodological baseline applicable to future design cycles. This work offers an academic case study of Systems Engineering applied to university competition vehicles and can serve as an exportable example for other teams wishing to structure their project within a Systems Engineering framework.
