Principles are applied to incompressible flow in pipes andturbo machinery, external flows, power generation systems, refrigeration cycles, and total air-conditioning focusing on the control volume approach.

To become a successful tenure-track faculty,a new professor needs to provide excellent teaching, groundbreaking research and outstandingservice to the department/university. Through Ph.D. level research the candidate learns to be asuccessful researcher by building laboratory experiments, performing simulations and publishingarticles in top-notch journals.

The drag coefficient wasdetermined using three different methods: software simulation of the flow around a SolidWorksmodel of the vehicle fairing, wind tunnel testing of a three dimensional model of the vehiclefairing, and field tests of the actual vehicle. The SolidWorks model was tested using the FlowSimulation tool in SolidWorks, which calculates the drag force, which can be used to evaluatethe drag coefficient, knowing frontal area, velocity, and air density. The SolidWorks model wasalso used to print a three dimensional model, which was then placed in the wind tunnel in ourfluids laboratory and tested at different velocities and heights. The drag was measured and usedto calculate the drag

Thepyramid shows various methods of learning and corresponding knowledge retention rates for average students.Merely attending lectures is the least effective method.

Having students experience lean manufacturing concepts in the laboratory canhave a positive effect on the experiences offered to the students prior to them entering theindustrial setting. It is important that faculty provide students with the experiences thatdevelop a strong conceptual framework of how this management practice will benefit theindustry in which they work. Many of our students learn best when they are actively engaged in activities thatemphasize the concepts that we are trying to teach.
