AB  -      TurboFlow - Integrated Engineering Design Through an Energy                    Efficient Building CompetitionAbstractStudents learn best when there is interest in the topic and what better way to induceinterest than to couple classroom theory with real-world application in the form of acompetition. Senior engineering students at Robert Morris University established adesign team to compete in the annual Energy Efficient Building Technologies Challengewhich is sponsored by the Mascaro Center for Sustainable Innovation. The students werenot only excited to be a part of a design competition that rewarded a cash prize, but therewas a remarkable level of enthusiasm associated with the sustainability aspect of thedesign project.The Energy Efficient Building Technologies Challenge was held over the Fall and Springsemesters of the 2010-2011 school year. During the fall semester the design teamdeveloped an idea for the competition and submitted a proposal. After being acceptedinto Stage 2 of the competition, the students designed, analyzed and fabricated the“TurboFlow” generation device for their Integrated Engineering and Design course. Thisprototype was demonstrated for the competition and the design team won first place, witha $5000 cash prize. Because of the competition, the design team went above and beyondthe classroom expectations to design, analyze, fabricate and demonstrate a device withconsiderable market potential. The students not only analyzed the TurboFlow from anengineering standpoint, but from economic and sustainability standpoints as well. Thefamous saying, “Competition Breeds Excellence,” could not be more true for this groupof students.
