determining aninduction machine’s torque-speed curve was less desirable. We paid to have the system alignedprofessionally, a costly thing for a university laboratory nearly 200km from the nearestalignment contractor. We did not want to decouple the machines because of the cost ofrealigning them. Therefore, we created a test method to find appropriate machine modelparameters without decoupling the machine.Incumbent Testing MethodThe current method to characterize an induction machine’s torque-speed curve is represented inFigure 1. In this method induction machine (IM) is operated as a motor and is supplied three-phase AC voltage and current from the utility. The induction motor’s shaft couples to a DCmachine. The DC machine acts as a generator that

Engineering Department Valparaiso UniversityAbstractWORK IN PROGRESS: Most engineering students take a course in electric circuits. In a typicalcircuit laboratory, the focus is on discrete passive components: resistors, inductors, andcapacitors. These components do not convert any energy into a form that can be detected bythe human senses. The function of the circuit can only be probed with the instrumentation. Inthis study, we explore the effect of incorporating a transducer (a loudspeaker) as a circuitcomponent. The control group of students construct a high-pass filter with a discrete resistorand capacitor. The experiment group uses a loudspeaker instead of a resistor. Both groupsperform a frequency sweep to

Design Experiences for Future Engineers in Chemistry Laboratory AbstractOur approach to general chemistry laboratory for engineers in our NSF-funded IUSE project(DUE-1625378) involves the use of design challenges (DCs), an innovation that uses authenticcontext and practice to transform traditional tasks. These challenges are scaled-down engineeringproblems related to the NAE Grand Challenges that engage students in collaborative, team-basedproblem solving via the modeling process. With features aligned with professional engineeringpractice, DCs are hypothesized to support student motivation for the task as well as for theprofession.
