Research on Effect of Locking Ratio of Limit-Slip Differential on Handling Stability of FSAE Racing Car

Article Preview

Abstract:

A nonlinear four-wheel dynamics vehicle model which includes a limit-slip differential model based on FSAE racecar is established and the typical conditions are designed according to track requirement. The effect of different locking ratio on vehicle handling stability has been researched .The simulation results shows that: with the increase of locking ratio, the steering radius ratio increase, both peak lateral acceleration and yaw angular velocity reduce, and the changing trend of value is flat. But the average acceleration increase with the locking ratio until the latter reach a specific value under the condition of Slaloms.
