This Laboratory Page is being developed
The primary goal of this course is to reinforce and enhance your understanding of the fundamentals of fluid mechanics and heat transfer learned in EML 3701 and EML 3140, respectively. The experiments, though relatively simple, are designed to demonstrate the application of the basic fluid and thermal science principles and thus provide a more intuitive and physical understanding of these disciplines. By conducting these experiments, you will be introduced to some modern and classical experimental and diagnostic techniques, and learn the principles behind these techniques. You will be asked to make engineering judgements, estimates and assess the reliability of your measurements, skills which are very important for any successful engineer. Furthermore, the laboratory reports will provide you with experience in organizing, analyzing, interpreting and most importantly presenting data. Finally, the final project will give you an opportunity to be creative and explore areas -- related to fluid and thermal sciences --which you find interesting.
MW 4:30-5:20 pm (ALL SECTIONS)
Room 402M (temporary/permanent building)
Lectures are structured to supplement the lab manual and provide you with additional information so you may better understand and conduct the experiments. The lectures are an integral part of the course and will give you a chance to ask questions and clarify concepts not clearly explained in the manual. Therefore, lectures are not optional.
Sec. 1, W 8:30-11:00 am
Sec. 2, W 2:00-4:30 pm
Sec. 3, R 2.00-4.30 pm
Note: Times for some of these sections are final as of 01/10/97
