environmental data, it is also vital to have an accurate methodof recording the vehicles velocity during the coastdown experiment. For testing at the airportand in class an ETAS system in collaboration with INCA recording software was used. TheETAS module plugs into the vehicles OBD-II port allowing it to pull data from the vehiclesController Area Network (CAN) bus. Communication to the host laptop is through an Ethernetcable. In addition to being able to control the sample rate, this also provides the student theoption to record additional variables such as engine speed, operating temperature, etc. A moreaccurate method of recording vehicle velocity would be through external sensors, however, thisincreases cost and complexity.

Society for Engineering Education IntroductionBackgroundNucleation is fundamental to all phase changes. It is of importance in boiling andcondensation phenomena. Classical homogeneous nucleation theory provides a simplephysical model that describes the formation of a new phase from a supersaturated phasein the absence of foreign seed particles. By assuming isothermal conditions classicalnucleation theory is possible to solve for the steady state, isothermal rate of formation ofstable particles of the new phase as the function of the bulk physical properties of thematerial, the temperature, and the degree of supersaturation of the system 2. The simplestform is homogeneous nucleation from the vapor phase so it
