Customer Needs• Student Learning Needs:
A lab manual that guides students through lab in a way that engenders learning. Questions for the post lab report that test student's understanding of process control. Lab manual that focuses on PID, noise, filtration, data modeling, disturbances, and/or hysteresis.

Feasibility: Fluids Analysis• Initial Analysis using Bernoulli’s Equation• Assumptions:• Neglecting Line Losses• Calculated for when the elevated holding tank is about to be
empty. • Desired flow rate = 1000 g/min. • Fluid = Water; Density = 1E6 g/m3. • Plastic Tubing with I.D. = 3/8 in. • Plane 1 = Tank Outlet and Plane 2 = Valve Inlet• Velocity @ 1 = 0 m/s, and Pressure @ 1 = Atmospheric• Height @ 2 = 0 m, and Pressure @ 2 = 40 psi = 275 kPa

Issues/Actions• Gravity fed to line fed• We initially were going to have a project that was “gravity fed,”
where we had a permanent height for a gravity feed stream• Instead of this, we decided to use a second control valve and set
of code in order to be able to be more versatile and mimic different heights with different water pressures from a water line
• Coordinating cart purchase• We have had a slight issue coming up with a cart idea that works
for the three groups.• After negotiating, we have come up with a final cart
• Slow start to project• Edge was not readily available for students at the start of MSD I• The lab learning portion is in progress 27

Next Steps• Final budget approval from Chemical Engineering Department• Purchase 3 carts, one for each group• Place purchase orders for all high lead time items• Patrick & Lauren to monitor materials received over summer• Simulate heights and create models in ChemCAD• Confirm donations from our department and Kodak• Procure and document all donations
