AB  - This paper presents the design, building and testing of an experimental setup for measurements of pressure drop in an optimized 90 degree elbow. The optimized elbow was designed using Sculptor software and experimental pressure drop measurements at different flow rates were compared with Ansys Fluent simulations of the flow field. It was discovered that a reduction in pressure drop by 50% could be achieved using an optimized design in comparison with the constant cross section elbow. The paper will include a description of student outcomes, student involvement and an assessment of student learning.
