Learning Outcomes:

On completion of this module students should be able to
1. Demonstrate a practical and analytical understanding of the principles of engineering measurement (i.e. temperature, pressure, flow, fluid rheology, particle size distribution) as applied to heat transfer, mass transfer, fluid flow and particulate processes;
2. Critically analyse engineering data, using appropriate statistical techniques (characterization of normal and log-normal distributions, linear regression analysis, confidence intervals, t-tests, F-tests, chi-squared test, ANOVA), implemented using EXCEL, where appropriate;
3. Quantitatively estimate the uncertainty in experimentally-determined quantities;
4. Effectively undertake independent study, in a discipline-related topic;
5. Collate and meaningfully present engineering information and data;
6. Describe and apply basic principles of Statistical Process Control;
