Comprehensive laboratory projects exploring Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, and Fluid Dynamics. Each experiment documents the complete engineering process from problem identification to solution validation.
Each project follows a structured approach: problem statement, experimental methodology, data collection, analysis, and engineering solutions.
Determining the standard enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy for the ionization of acetic acid in water using pH measurements and Van't Hoff plot analysis.
Cost-effective fin design optimization for the Frantoio Franci olive oil facility, analyzing different materials to reduce oil temperature by 1°C before bottling.
Evaluating the role of air flow influencing fluidization within a packed bed system, analyzing pressure drops and minimum fluidization velocities.
Investigating the residence time distribution (RTD) and resonance of a Continuous Stirred-Tank Reactor (CSTR) through abrupt saline tracer injection.
Fine-tuning operational parameters of a spray drying system to maximize the efficient collection of salt from saltwater solutions.
Each project follows a rigorous engineering approach combining theoretical principles with hands-on experimentation and data analysis.
