Interfacing of Computers with Fluid Mechanics Experiment- ation

资源提供，以适应一些本科实验， 液压学和流体力学到基于计算机的仪器 和控制，并探讨在教学中的新概念， 实验室课程 该项目的目的有两个： 向学生介绍科学数据的现代方法 采集和控制，并加强流体的教学 机械现象 后者是主要目标，因为它 众所周知，流体直接参与和观察 流动对于获得对主题的感觉至关重要。 的 项目将通过允许更多的情况下， 并通过提供快速反馈的后果， 改变实验变量 一本描述 实验并将软件提供给其他机构 将被生产。

Resources are provided to adapt some undergraduate experiments in hydraulics and fluid mechanics to computer-based instrumentation and control, and to explore new concepts in the teaching of laboratory courses. The purpose of the project is twofold: to introduce students to modern methods of scientific data acquisition and control, and to enhance the teaching of fluid mechanical phenomena. The latter is the primary objective as it is well known that direct involvement and observation of fluid flows is essential for gaining a feel for the subject. The project will accomplish this by allowing many more cases to be explored and by providing rapid feedback of the consequences of changing experimental variables. A manual which describes the experiments and makes the software available to other institutions will be produced.
