duration of time devoted to the students’presentations of the four different product ideas, as well as the free-form question-and-answersessions that followed each presentation. The quantity and distribution of verbal participationfrom individuals during each Q&A discussion was also calculated. Although limited in scope,results of this first study suggest a correlation between the duration of Q&A sessions,distribution of communication responsibility among individual team members, and final productselection. Furthermore, a total of 23 out of 24 students (96%) on Team A and 20 out of 24students (83%) on Team B asked and/or answered questions during the discussions throughoutthe meeting, suggesting that the stress and emotion of the high

Page 26.810.11zero, position increases the speed in one direction (red) along the constraint line, while movingthe slider down from the mid position increases the speed in the opposite direction (orange). Thethrottle is also selectable as either Q (heat) or W (work), and the associated rate of change in thespecific internal energy, as defined by the first law of thermodynamics, eq. (1), determinemovement along the constraint line. The adjustable slider and selectable constrain lines enablethe player to explore the entire surface at a fast or leisurely pace. This feature, along with thecontinuously updated “Current Position” information box allows the player to observe how thevarious thermodynamic properties change throughout the different

Figure 22: Prototype Kaplan Turbine (left)27, Model-size turbines (right) Page 26.33.232.5.2 Scaled-Up Bullets – provides an example of scale modelling and promotes discussionof modelling pitfalls The students at the author’s institution are required to complete a project at the end oftheir Fluids laboratory course and many ask to use the wind tunnel to do scale modeling. Mostof the time, this is not practical because the students want to scale down cars or other largeobjects and this means they need to scale up the velocity beyond the capabilities of the
