the venturimeter coefficient which in turn allows it to be used as a flow-measuring device. Thephysical experiment, shown in Fig. 1, involves measuring the pressure drop between the inlet andthroat sections of the venturimeter for a number of flowrates. The flow through the system isregulated by opening or closing a valve. The pressure reading in the piezometer tubes connectedto the inlet and the throat sections of venturimeter are recorded for the selected flowrate, and thecoefficient of venturimeter (cv) is calculated using the following equation. 2(P1 − P2 ) ρ Q&Actual = c v A2
stepless variation ofthe flow rate. The MPYE thus controls the flow rate regard its magnitude and direction.The MPYE valve operates between 0 and 10V. At 5V input, the flow rate is disabled. Asthe voltage input is decreased from 5 to 0V, the flow rate increases in the negativedirection. As the input voltage is increased from 5V to 10V, the flow rate increases in thepositive direction. Figure 4 below illustrates the output of the MPYE proportional controlvalve. The potentiometer outputs a voltage proportional to the position of the slide. Thepotentiometer operates between 0 and 10V. Q(l/s) Q (l/s) 0 Voltage Input
Session 1554 Discover Engineering Day: Collaborations in Pre-College Recruitment William C. Davis, Elsa Q. Villa, S. W. Stafford The University of Texas at El PasoAbstractAs engineering enrollments across the United States are on the decline, the College ofEngineering at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) has shown a 7% increase each year forthe past four years. To address this enrollment gap, retention and recruitment programs mustexist symbiotically at an institution to attract students and retain them through graduation. TheDiscover
processof adjusting this set of Cost Estimating Relationship (CER) equations was begun by calculatingand tabulating the magnitude of various segments of the design and manufacturing process asgiven by the cost model. The equations break up the cost into eight major contributors:engineering hours, tooling hours, manufacturing hours, quality control hours, developmentsupport cost, flight test cost, cost of manufacturing materials, and engine production cost. Eachsegment is estimated by an equation generated by regression analysis of Department of Defensedatabase information. The equation for engineering labor hours is typical: Engineering labor hours, E = .0396 A .791 S 1.526 Q .183 where A = airframe weight in pounds

The number of data points output by this VI corresponds directly to the number ofpoints used in the RF waveform generated by the next VI. The baseband modulation can be thought ofas the digital modulation phase of a modern communication system.The inputs to the RF Up-converter VI are the data created by the baseband modulator and the userdefined modulation technique. For PSK, QAM, and Generic I & Q techniques the data has in-phaseand quadrature phase information that relates to all of the symbols included in the input bit array.

Scientific knowledge must be disseminated.Students are then to prepare a 20-minute oral presentation with a ten minute question and answerportion. During this time they are to present not only their findings but also the entire processfrom speculation to final conclusions. After this process of “review” under Q&A from theprofessor, peer, and invited guests, it may be possible that if a serious deficiency is found in theexperimental or data analysis process, that portions of the experiment and/or analysis may needto be redone and an Errata and a corrected paper/poster presented to the professor.Educational
