UMaine Clean Snowmobile
We are a team of mechanical engineering students at the University of Maine working on the chassis of a snowmobile that has been converted from gasoline to cleaner burning compressed natural gas (CNG). We are working with two other teams as part of the UMaine clean snowmobile capstone project to prove that a CNG is a viable option for powering a snowmobile.
Our team is specifically focusing on the vehicle dynamic challenges associated with a large CNG tank on the sled.
