3. Three inductors are connected as shown in the following figure:
Given that L1 = 2L2, find L1 and L2 such that the equivalence inductance is L = 0.7 H. Give your answers in Henry, rounded to three decimal places separated by a comma (L1, L2)
4. Your head of powertrain has found a battery cell with excellent specifications and yet cheap. He decides upon a 142s2p accumulator configuration using the cells with a capacity of 5.8 Ah. The manufacturer specifies an internal impedance of 1.5 mOhm. However, after a while you notice the cells are of horrible quality and their real capacity varies significantly leading to an unbalanced accumulator.
He performed experiements to find an approximation of the cells SoC relation to their open-circuit voltage (EMF) as shown in the following figure:
Assume due to imbalance, exactly half of the accumulators cells are at 40% SoC and half at 80% SoC. What current will be drawn at the maximum allowed power usage? Give answer in Amps to nearest whole number
40% SoC -> 3.7V and 1.6 mΩ and 80% SoC -> 3.8V and 1.2 mΩ, total open-circuit voltage
71*3.7 + 71*3.8 = 532.5V
Total impedance = 71 * (1.6m/2) + 71*(1.2m/2) = 99.4mΩ
V*I = I^2*R * 80kW
I = 155 A
5. A capacitor with a capacitance of 100 μF is currently charged to a voltage of 199.8V. How much additional energy is needed to charge it to a voltage of 301.4V. Give answer to 4 significant figures in Joules
W = 0.5 * C * U^2
∆W = W_end – W_start = 0.5 * C ((U_end)^2 – (U_start)^2)
6. Which of the following statements about the Tractive System Accumulator are wrong? (Multiple choice)
See FSG rules 2023. Correct answers:
7. How long will it take to discharge C1 below 60V using the following constant current sink if it is initially charged at 565V? (MOSFET’s VGSth: 4V) Give answer to two decimal places in secs.
Circuit’s current: MOSFET will operate in linear zone, close to the activation voltage. Therefore, as VGSth is 4V, VS can be taken as 8V. From these 8V and the 47R current limiting resistor, the discharge current of the circuit will be 8/47->0,17A As the constant current discharge of a capacitor depends on capacity, as V=i·t/C-> t=V·C/i=(565-60)·0,0012/0,17=3,56s
8. Which statements about the travel of the driving pedal is correct
FSG Rules 2023: T11.8.1, T11.8.5

Quiz „General Engineering“
1. A vehicle with the mass 190kg, wheelbase 1,56m and tyre static radius 222mm is weighed. Scales measure 83kg (front) and 107kg (rear) when the car measured on the perfectly flat ground and the same values when the front axle is elevated by 0,85m. What is the car’s COG height? Give answer to the nearest whole number in mm
Fb‘ = m*g (at rear axle while front tyres are lifted)
Fb = m*g (at rear axle while car standing on ground)
Fg = m*g (at COG)

7. During last year acceleration a top speed of 100 km/h was reached. Due to big improvements in the new drivetrain, the new vehicle reaches a top speed of 120 km/h. The aerodynamics chief has some worries about the stability of the rear wing bracing due to the higher aerodynamics load. Given the geometry below, by how much % does the bearing force in point A change in comparison to last year? (The aerodynamic package did not change and therefore some values can be assumed for both vehicles). Give answer rounded to one decimal place.
