Lab #5: Refraction of Light Theory: Refraction can be defined as the bending of a wave when it enters a medium which causes it to have some reduced speed. In terms of light‚ refraction occurs when the ray passes through some medium which slows its speed; such as water or glass. In this instance the ray tends to bend towards the normal of the medium. The amount of bending or refraction which occurs can be calculated using Snell’s Law (). Objective: To measure the index of refraction of Lucite

Techniques of Waste Heat Recovery Waste heat recovery is being more used more and more often today as it is becoming more effective‚ due to increasing energy prices‚ technological developments and a decrease in equipment costs. Heat recovery can be classified into three main strategies: recycling energy back into the process‚ recovering the energy for other onsite use and using it to generate electricity in combined heat and power systems. Once the system has been made as efficient as possible before

safety and actuated completely mechanically. The driver or one of several mechanical control systems controlled all the engine systems. For instance‚ before the introduction of sensors and microcontrollers‚ a mechanical distributor selected the specific spark plug to fire when the fuel-air mixture was compressed just so. The timing of the ignition was the control variable. The mechanically controlled combustion process was not optimal in terms of fuel efficiency. Modeling of the combustion
