Ok so today we're in The Mine. We're looking
at M E 335 currently. This is a lab that is
sponsored directly by Emerson and we are lucky
to have updated equipment in here. We run
essentially nine labs. We start with Archimedes
Principles and we move on to Bernoulli's Equations.
We do flow control. We do wind tunnel testing. We do Reynolds numbers. We employ student technicians
in this lab. They build this equipment. They
maintain this equipment. This is a very functional,
hands-on student lab. It consists of four
stations, four people per station or four
groups. We run 16 students at a time through
here and we run 17 sections of students. So
we're running well over 250 students each
semester through this lab. We run fall, summer,
and spring semesters. The students like it.
It's forward, it's new, it's innovative. We
use LabView as our programming. We use Flow Analysis with ANSYS. And we use MatLab in this environment.
This is a very unique lab,
a very unique set-up for us and we're very
lucky to have Emerson as a sponsor, and we're
lucky to also have the university as a sponsor.
