Adams et al.7 made a similar observationthat engineering faculty face difficulty with education research because of the differences indisciplinary language and the use of qualitative data in education research. Choosing anappropriate conceptual framework for education research (Q 1.5) was rated the lowest. Thisconforms to Borrego’s13 finding that when learning educational research methods, groundingresearch in a theoretical framework is among the conceptual issues that engineering faculty findless familiar. As Borrego observes, the scientific and engineering theories these faculty use areuniversal and often do not need to be

experiment, and Q is the power input from the DC source to theheating element. [3]Derivation of the Thermal Resistance FormulaThis formula is derived from the basic principles of steady-state heat transfer. In steady-stateconditions, the rate of heat generated by the heating element (𝑄) is equal to the rate at which heatis dissipated through the heat sink into the surrounding environment, with no net energyaccumulation in the system. [4] Thermal resistance in this context functions similarly toelectrical resistance in circuits, where a temperature difference (𝛥𝑇) drives the heat flow just as avoltage difference drives current.The general formula for thermal resistance is defined as: 𝛥𝑇

The flow is due to a driving potential: in heattransfer the driving potential is a temperature difference between two locations, while in the caseof electric current the voltage difference is the driving potential. The thermal resistance isobtained by employing this analogy and manipulating the heat transfer governing equations andcasting them in the form of Ohm’s law.For a plane thin wall with its two surfaces at constant, yet different, temperatures (Fig. 1), thesteady-state one-dimensional conduction heat transfer is given by Fourier’s law: T1 / T2 Q% ? k A (1

Now introduce a discrete logic variable q ∈ {1, 2} that will be used for assuring thevalue of u “agrees” with the direction for the system to turn.
