Jet Ejector Pump
Day 1: Lesson Plan August, 2011 Pretest Pretest Also ask Students to bring 100 pictures Also ask Students to bring 100 pictures October, 2011 Present my E3 research using Poster and Powerpoint Present my E3 research using Poster and Powerpoint Discuss two-phase flow Discuss two-phase flow Demonstrate two phase flow: Use a coke Demonstrate two phase flow: Use a coke
Day 2: Pixel Face Take a picture of their own face Take a picture of their own face Upload Upload Magnify Magnify Count how many pixels wide and long in their face Count how many pixels wide and long in their face
Before and After Magnification
Two Phase Flow Give students pictures of two phase flow; each group gets a different picture Give students pictures of two phase flow; each group gets a different picture Use Transparency overlay of graph paper to represent pixels Use Transparency overlay of graph paper to represent pixels Mark gas as white and liquid as black Mark gas as white and liquid as black Students count and calculate fractions of liquid and gas and do a mass balance for the jet Students count and calculate fractions of liquid and gas and do a mass balance for the jet

Day 3: Picture Mosaic Download free Andrea Mosaic software Download free Andrea Mosaic software Create a mosaic from their own pictures Create a mosaic from their own pictures
First choose a picture for the base First choose a picture for the base
Set Mosaic Parameters Mosaic size and resolution Mosaic size and resolution Tile size and duplication Tile size and duplication Pattern Pattern Color change Color change Tile variants Tile variants Etc. Etc.
Create Mosaic Ooops! Pixels are too big. Change parameters and try again!
Smaller Pixels are a Tradeoff

Pre/Post Test When sampling an image spatially, the sampling rate might have units of ____________. When sampling an image spatially, the sampling rate might have units of ____________. pixels/cmAnswer pixels/cmAnswer pixels/sec pixels/sec cm/pixel cm/pixel pixels pixels
Spatial quantization refers to the process by which we assign Spatial quantization refers to the process by which we assign the number of pixels in an image. Answer the number of pixels in an image. Answer the frame rate of a movie. the frame rate of a movie. the shape of the pixels in an image. the shape of the pixels in an image. the numbers assigned to each pixel. the numbers assigned to each pixel.
A picture that has many small details would need to be sampled with A picture that has many small details would need to be sampled with a large pixel size. a large pixel size. a high spatial sampling rate. Answer a high spatial sampling rate. Answer a high bit quantization level. a high bit quantization level. a low bit quantization level. a low bit quantization level.
