To the left is an early
conceptual schematic of the design properties our alternative fueling
station will encompass.
To the right is a Pro-E conceptual drawing of
what Team Tank-Ups final design may resemble. This is an exploded
assembly view of the basic cart frame which will be used to house the
operating components.
To the left is another Pro-E drawing of what
the user may encounter as an interface to operate the fueling station as a
whole.

side. This mock up helped us verify the operation of the flow controllers
on our system as well as possible system component
configuration.
Above is a photo of the Alcohol
Water Fueling Station upon completion.
The final product
decreased total mixing/fueling time from approximately 1.25 hours to
approximately 10 minutes. Verification can be done inline before fueling,
or setup as a "stand alone" testing instrument for smaller batches of
fuel.
