During the 2005 SURE programthe SURE Program Coordinator was solely responsible for the pairing of studentparticipants with graduate student mentors. However, in the 2006 SURE program,graduate student mentors were given the opportunity to select student participants tomentor. Selection was based upon evaluation of a list that included the studentparticipant’s home school, hometown, research area, and faculty advisor. A maximum oftwo and a minimum of one SURE participant(s) were given to each graduate mentor.Graduate student mentor opinions were solicited in the 2006 SURE program.

Additional controlsallow the user to have the program generate a new noise sample or display a histogram of thenoise in a pop-up window.

This standardtextbook approach is non-intuitive in that there is no indication of the turbine power output, andincorrect in that the ideal feedwater pump process is always represented by a line when in fact itshould be closer to a single point.Another significant departure from traditional thermodynamic texts is the use of the ideal Stirlingcycle machine to represent the ideal reversible machine.
