includingits ability to target and be linked to theory of thermal lumped systems covered in the heat transfercourse, the time to run the experiment and whether the experiment can make them rememberlumped systems in the future. From the answers of students, the experiment is deemed veryvaluable in all of the above areas and students were very satisfied with it, and they felt it was agood tool to learn the concepts involved. It is hoped that the experiment can be constructed by,and can help, other mechanical engineering professors struggling with limited funds to procurehands-on set-up for teaching heat transfer concepts.IntroductionEngineering and science departments offer various laboratory courses with experiments designedto enhance the learning

A laboratory-driven approach was developed to bring together the different subjects and to relate classroomtheory to real world application. Four laboratory exercises develop the students’ understandingof the material, reinforce prerequisite knowledge, and develop hands-on skills.

ability in an engineeringlaboratory. This study uses an established survey to assess the experimental self-efficacy (ESE)of students enrolled in a fourth-year chemical engineering laboratory course at the University ofVirginia. The survey measures ESE using four factors: conceptual understanding, proceduralcomplexity, laboratory hazards, and lack of sufficient resources. Results from the ESE surveysuggest that students had higher confidence in their conceptual understanding and their ability toavoid laboratory hazards. This study also analyzes students’ troubleshooting abilities using anexisting chemical reactor system (a water gas shift reaction). Students were asked to use theexperimental equipment to perform an activity. To succeed, students

For example, a small scale model steam power plant andtable-top demos are used for the three heat transfer mechanism. Although these experimentaldevices have mostly performed as designed, they were initially expensive to procure, can bedifficult to set up and coordinate with running a tight class schedule, and have had somereliability issues. Additionally, they can be difficult to scale up to a large number of studentgroups.The authors’ goal was to supplement the existing AML-TFS experiments with a new device todemonstrate the hydrostatic vacuum concept.
