Group LogisticsAs described elsewhere6, students arrive at PLTL groups to find that the mentor hasorganized the seating in the room to be in a U-shape with all chairs and desks facing thewhite board. The mentor takes a seat as if s/he is a part of the group. The mentorfacilitates collaborative group work by opening communication and asking aboutproblem areas from the lecture or homework. Once a problem is stated, the mentor willopen up the discussion of the solution to the whole group. Students begin to work on theproblem which is often chosen from their assigned homework problems. In thebeginning, students may need assistance finding procedures to solve problems in thetextbook, at which point mentors will use some tutoring skills. As the

Using scatter plots (Bhote, 2000) tolerances can be decided on critical components that are close enough to achieve the functional requirement and at the same time are not Page 23.664.6 too restrictive to unnecessarily increase the manufacturing cost. An example of 6 how this can be done using Shainin’ s Red X and Green Y ideas (Bhote, 2000) is shown in Figure 3

Other camera types and set-ups are of course workable as well, including higher-endconsumer CCD cameras. The quantification of flow rate can be made adding a graduated scale inthe image, such as with a thin plastic ruler placed along the flow channel which shows theposition of the flow front in each frame along with the time for that frame. From this analysis,the flow velocity can be accurately determined as a function of time. A common analysisobjective is to determine the pressure drop ∆𝑃 between two points as a function of flow rate Q orfluid velocity v. ∆𝑃 = 𝑓
