This week, the group ran the first major temperature test for their top-level engineering requirement. The procedures for this test are given under 4.1.1 in the Acceptance Test Procedure. The results are given in the chart below.
The maximum internal air temperature of the test vehicle occurred at 3:15 PM, reaching 95.3 °F. The maximum ambient air temperature for the day was 74 °F. The maximum internal air temperature was 128.8% of the outside maximum ambient temperature.
The results of the test indicate that the test vehicle's maximum internal air temperature does not exceed 130% of the maximum outside ambient temperature, which satisfies the group's top-level engineering requirement. Further testing will be conducted to verify the results.
The group also worked together to lay out the structure of the report.
