Documents, standardizes and improves existing In-line, Elbow, and Tee Flanged Connectors for use with SAE J518-2/ISO6162-2 Components.

This Recommended Practice proposes test practices to evaluate the Water Leak Tightness of Propulsion Battery Packs that emulates the equivalent results of IEC 60529 to an IPX7 level applying the Selected Equivalent Channel (EC) per SAE J3277 and provide guidelines for proper tooling design, validation, and leak test procedure. This practice is in consideration of the design limitation of some battery packs while utilizing applicable common air or tracer gas leak tightness technologies.

Cyclic corrosion and media contamination effects during inertia dynamometer testing on torque output, coefficient of friction, surface condition, for passenger cars and light duty trucks up to 4540 kg of Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

The acquisition of digital evidence from automobiles has become commonplace, with the number of data sources within vehicles continually growing. To that end, the potential for evidence spoliation is real in that the acquisition of data from one source could interfere with the data stored in another source. The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide information to assist in eliminating or at least minimizing the potential for evidence spoliation and also providing guidance as to when decisions must be made to prioritize the order of data collection.

This document describes the megawatt-level DC charging system requirements for couplers/inlets, cables, cooling, communication and interoperability. The intended application is for commercial vehicles with larger battery packs requiring higher charging rates for moderate dwell time. A simplified analog safety signaling approach is used for connection-detection to guarantee de-energized state for unmated couplers with superimposed high speed data for EVSE-EV charging control and other value added services.

The SAE J3211 procedure applies to brake squeal evaluation using single-ended inertia dynamometers for friction couples used on vehicles with regenerative braking systems. This RP applies to squeal noise occurrences for on-road passenger cars and light trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating of 4536 kg or below. The procedure incorporates aspects related to (a) minimum inertia dynamometer capabilties, (b) fixture requirements and setup, and (c) test sequences with emphasis on brake temperatures, brake pressure profiles, and strategies to represent brake blending.

This SAE Standard covers the minimum requirements for nonmetallic tubing as manufactured for use in air brake systems which tubing is different from that described in SAE J844. It is not intended to cover tubing for any portion of the system which operates continuously below - 40 degrees C or above +93 degrees C, above a maximum working gage pressure of 1.0 MPa, or in an area subject to attack by battery acid. This tubing is intended for use in the brake system for connections, which maintain a basically fixed relationship between components during vehicle operation. Coiled tube assemblies required for those installations where flexing occurs are covered by this document, SAE J1131 and SAE J2494-3, to the extent of setting minimum requirements on the essentially straight tube and tube fitting connections which are used in the construction of such assemblies.

SAE J#### establishes the protocol and process limits for hydrogen fueling of light duty vehicles when the fuel delivery temperature is not pre-cooled, so called “ambient fueling” designated by Table 1 of SAE J2601-2014. These process limits (including the fuel delivery temperature, the maximum fuel flow rate, the rate of pressure increase and the ending pressure) are affected by factors such as ambient temperature, fuel delivery temperature and initial pressure in the vehicle’s compressed hydrogen storage system. SAE J#### establishes standard fueling protocols based on a series of design cases representing fueling system engineering categories. These categories are intended to provide performance targets which allow decreasing fueling times relative to the most simple design case. Similar to the table and formula based approaches of SAE J2601-2014, this approach establishes a minimum performance criteria leaving open options for innovation to decrease fueling times.

Best Practices for defining the dimensional requirements of backing plates on the drawings themselves, and defining the measuring procedures used to validate those dimensions. The proposed standard employs already established methods such as geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), including instruction on its proper application to features specific to backing plates. Current ‘best practices’ of design and drafting in our industry are similarly highlighted; drawing clarity, revision control, and dimensioning for both function and manufacturability. Generic examples are used to illustrate both the advantages of best drafting practices, and the potential failure modes that can result from poor drafting practices. The standard also proposes the best methods of measurement required to properly validate requirements such as feature size and location, surface roughness, plate flatness and bow shape

The scope of this new recommended practice should include, but not necessarily be limited to: 1. Define vehicle operating conditions used to drive MOC-EPB actuator design and selection 2. Define brake corner operating conditions (e.g. temperature and state of burnish) used to drive MOC-EPB actuator design and selection 3. Define actuator operating conditions (e.g. temperature, voltage, current limit, and state of wear) used to drive MOC-EPB actuator design and selection 4. Define methodology for addressing part to part variation in performance

Develop and document an aerodynamic constant speed procedure for heavy vehicles that can accurately calculate the aerodynamic performance through the typical expected yaw angles during operation at highway speeds.

This SAE RP provides a set of test methods and practices for the characterization of the properties of lithium battery anode active materials. Lithium battery anode active materials can be grouped in one of the following categories: lithium intercalation materials (including graphite, Li4Ti5O12); lithium alloying materials (including Sn, Si compounds/composites); lithium deposition materials (lithium metal). For the purposes of this document, material properties will be examined for particulate anode active materials (graphite, Li4TiO5, Sn compounds, Si compounds) and for metallic films (lithium metal). It is not within the scope of this document to establish criteria for the test results, as this is usually established between the vendor and customer It is not within the scope of this document to examine the electrochemical properties of anode materials since these are influenced by electrode design.

To develop a recommended practice for taking photographs of a damaged vehicle to preserve evidence.

The scope of this document is to provide a guidance of the common contamination types and their concentrations in order to size FTIS components and characterize its performance on generic commercial aircraft.

This document outlines the current state of the art in the understanding of gas in solution in shock absorber oils in unseperated shock absorbers. A literature review, overview of Henry's law, Henry's law coefficients for known gas and oil couples, in-service operational problems, lessons learned, and potential future work will be discussed in the document.

This document outlines historical systems which have used the landing gear as a sensor or installation point for full aircraft weight and balance systems. A number of systems have been developed, installed, certified, and placed in service but few systems remain in regular use. The document will capture the history of these systems, reasons (where known) for their withdrawal from service, and lessons learned.
