We are thrilled to have 30 cars competing this year.

The competition is the result of the hard work of many people at Dartmouth and

beyond. We are grateful to all our sponsors, judges, event volunteers, and supporters.

Most of all, we are indebted to the enthusiasm of all the students who have taken up

the Formula Hybrid challenge. We are delighted that they are directing their ingenuity

and creativity to advancing hybrid technologies, as we believe that ideas developed

for competitions today may lead to everyday applications tomorrow. This event, the

third annual Formula Hybrid competition, is another step in the growing movement

to engineer new automotive solutions.

We are already planning the 2010 Formula Hybrid Competition. We look forward to

seeing you there.

For over a decade, Dartmouth engineering students participated in the

annual Formula SAE competition. In 2003 a team of engineering students

decided to test their knowledge of electric motors and the role they could

play in formula racecars. The team reasoned that because electric motors

deliver higher torque at low speeds than do internal combustion engines,

a hybrid could offer competitive advantages in a few of the Formula

SAE events.

The Dartmouth team converted a former Formula SAE car with a traditional

combustion engine into a hybrid vehicle, overcoming numerous technical

challenges along the way. One of the most difficult aspects was making all

the pieces fit. Despite the smaller size of the hybrid gasoline engine, there

are more components to a hybrid drivetrain, including the electric motor,

motor controller, energy storage system (accumulator), various high-power

voltage converters, and computerized control systems. But the greatest

obstacle of all was that hybrid cars could not meet newly revised Formula

SAE regulations. So the Dartmouth team decided to create a whole new

competition: Formula Hybrid.

Led by Doug Fraser and Wynne Washburn of Thayer School of Engineering

at Dartmouth and endorsed by SAE and IEEE, Formula Hybrid has become an

annual event that continues to gain momentum. From six teams and 60 students

in 2007 to this year‘s 30 teams and 400 students from five countries, Formula

Hybrid is widening the road to energy-efficient automotive engineering.

What is Formula Hybrid? The Road to Formula HybridThe Formula Hybrid™ International Competition challenges undergraduate

and graduate students to design and build hybrid racecars and compete in

a multi-event program. The open-wheel, single-seat cars must conform to a

set of rules—formulas—that emphasize, encourage, and promote drivetrain

innovation and fuel efficiency.

Organized by Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College, Formula

Hybrid carries the endorsement of the Society of Automotive Engineers, Inc.

(SAE) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE).

The Formula Hybrid competition builds on the highly successful Formula SAE

program by adding an extra layer of complexity. Like Formula SAE events, the

Hybrid competition includes autocross, endurance events, an acceleration

test, and judging of car design and marketing presentations. But in addition,

Formula Hybrid demands completion of

the endurance event on a fixed amount

of fuel—a challenge that proves difficult

to master. The competition gives teams

the opportunity to demonstrate and test

their solutions and glean new ideas for

the future. 09
