It is typically in the form of either directservice or project-based activities. Service learning as a pedagogical tool is gradually gainingmomentum in engineering programs across the country. In this paper the efforts of the author tointroduce service learning to an undergraduate thermodynamics course will be presented. For thispurpose, communications with the following museums were initiated: Powerhouse Science Center,Roseville Utility Exploration Center, and Aerospace Museum of California. Thesecommunications led to identification of the topics of interests for the community partners that

The objective was to design a hydraulic system that would minimizeenergy loss and optimize performance of the system in the races. In the design process, all pumpsand motors meeting the operational requirement were assessed and two sets of pumps and motorsidentified as “Aerospace” and “H3” were selected for testing in the laboratory. A test system isdeveloped in the laboratory that allows operation of the pumps and motors under variable flowrate, pressure, rpm, torque and power. This operational data was imported in Excel for detailedanalysis.Energy analysis and energy efficiency mapping: The goal of the analysis was to determineoverall which pump and motor would

The authenticity of theexperience is beyond question, in that students ride home aided by the creative output of theirpersonal efforts. However, scaling the project beyond the pilot scale will require significantamount of staffing, space and material resources. A creative funding and staffing mechanism forthe project will enable the benefits to be broadly realized. Furthermore, the bicycle may also bean ideal vehicle for introducing various other engineering fields such as structures, dynamics,materials, etc. on a hands-on basis in an effective and authentic manner.
