Scott Moor Lafayette CollegeAbstractIn our first year “Introduction to Engineering” class, each student passes through a three-weekblock on chemical engineering. In such a short period of time, it is always a challenge to givestudents a clear idea of the nature and diversity of chemical engineering. I have particularlywanted them to understand the process focus of chemical engineering and the wide range ofproducts made

the given target. Logistics: Lab groups of 3 students Each group will be scheduled for 7 minutes in the UO lab. II. Target flow rates The lab group will be asked achieve, in the allotted time frame, three of the following flow rates: 100 kmol/hr, 100 lbmol/hr, 100 mol/s, 5 gal/min, 25 gal/min, 50 gal/min. The instructor will inform the group of the three target flow rates when they begin the experiment and the order of experimentation. III. Flow rate determination Using the equipment listed above, the group should execute a procedure for accurately determining the flow rate of water. The group should collect water long enough to prove that they established a particular flow rate. As part of your planning

Cantoral 10 mentions that if fromthe beginning of movement, values assumed by position S(0) = S o, velocity V(0) = Vo, andacceleration a(0) = a are known, then the position at any given instant t is S(t). The functionalexpression for S(t) will be given by the natural prediction instrument: Taylor’s Series, S(t) = S(0) + S’(0) t + S’’(0) t 2/2! + … (1)When dealing with rectilinear movement uniformly accelerated, for every t value it is found that, S(n)(t) = 0 " n ³ 3Therefore, equation (1) can be expressed as

], the reviews done by students are themselves reviewed byother students, to give students an incentive to submit good reviews. In this case, no student mayreview his own work, nor may (s)he review her own review. A mapping that satisfies theseconstraints is called a “valid” mapping.2. Overview of our strategyThe basic idea of this algorithm is similar to the banker’s algorithm [SGG 01] used for resourceallocation in operating systems.Definition 1. A mapping assignment of a reviewer to a reviewee is valid if it does not cause areviewer to review his/her own submission, and leaves sufficient valid mapping assignments forall future reviewers.Definition 2. A mapping assignment is invalid either if it does not leave enough valid mappingassignments
