Wow, this test on Thursday is going to be the end of my GPA . . .

2/27/2006 10:24:09 PM

haha yea it's gonna be a beast

2/27/2006 10:39:08 PM

considering how i did on tests when i took his class and how i ended up with an A overall....


...he curves

2/27/2006 11:21:32 PM

Yeah, there was definitely a massive curve in his fluids class...but it still sucked.

2/28/2006 12:27:51 AM

so who's ready!?

3/1/2006 11:16:49 PM

im not

i still havent figured out how to do the temperature distribution, chapter 2 stuff

3/2/2006 12:44:51 AM

Hmm . . . not sure what to think of that test. Could go either way.

3/2/2006 3:30:55 PM

wasnt bad except for that last problem

3/2/2006 3:33:35 PM

yeah having a 10 pt multiple choice question is hardcore

I think I did well on the test though. anybody remember what they got for Tso the pipe problem? I got 53 deg C

3/2/2006 3:46:15 PM

me too

3/2/2006 4:33:25 PM

i didnt have any problems besides the radial one. i forgot how to find that Tso. i found the q etc. so hopefully ill get some decent credit.

the last one first glance was hard but then i realized it was the exact same as what sid did, just deltaZ and radiation instead of convection but you did it the same exact way

3/2/2006 5:50:27 PM

I got 56.1 C for the pipe problem.

3/2/2006 6:47:53 PM

yeah i got B for both multiples choice questions and like 6250W and 56.1 C

3/2/2006 7:59:19 PM

hmmm I'm pretty sure I got A for the first problem. (It was like 1010 degC I believe) I got B for the last one though.

3/2/2006 8:05:04 PM

i got the same answers as holstein

3/2/2006 8:57:25 PM

yep i got B for both, 6250 but i didnt know the radial thing. i got like 66 (i know im wrong)

3/2/2006 10:07:09 PM

bttt

has anyone had any luck with hw problem 3.129?? anyone know how to go about this one?

3/22/2006 6:55:12 PM

anyone??

3/22/2006 8:22:00 PM

yeah I need help with all 3 problems

I missed the problem session this week

3/22/2006 11:17:08 PM

For the first one, use the chart on page 133. It has the formulas for temperature distribution and heat transfer, you just have to plug in the values.

For the third one, use the same chart but this time for an infinite fin and find the temperature distribution for both rods. Solve each of these equations for x and set them equal to each other. The h, P, and A will cancel out and you can find Kb.

3/23/2006 12:20:40 AM

bttt. i wasnt able to go to problem session.

can anyone help me out with 4.55 and 4.56?

3/29/2006 6:50:39 PM

anyone have the notes from the problem session that was 4/11? i was unable to go.

4/15/2006 11:21:17 AM

yeah I have them, what do you need help with?

4/15/2006 8:48:00 PM

i just need someone to scan the notes for me so that i have em to help me study for the test.

4/16/2006 11:04:20 AM

ahh okay, I might be able to do that late tonight when I get back to school

if the library is open

4/16/2006 2:10:43 PM

hey does anybody want to study early today at like 4 or 5?

4/19/2006 2:54:30 PM

Anybody? I'm here in broughton right now

4/19/2006 8:06:59 PM

all that I can say about that test is ouch....it sucked

4/20/2006 3:35:53 PM

so how bout that test average of 58

4/25/2006 8:21:10 PM

Anyone else notice how the entire class has pretty much turned against him now.

I'm just mad that he did evaluations when about 85% of the class didn't show up one day. Go figure he knew what would happen if he waited until one of the days when everyone goes.

4/26/2006 1:40:57 AM

who's ready for the final? anyone? anyone? bueller?

5/2/2006 9:44:00 PM

Not I.

I wonder what format he will make this test? Since he likes changing it so much.


Hopefully we can easily finish the test in 3 hours.

5/2/2006 10:14:05 PM

i wouldn't count on it, talking from experience... that is of course, unless you give up

5/3/2006 2:37:43 AM

I'm really worried about this final

it's going to cover EVERYTHING we've done in class!!

I'm just gonna study the last 2 tests and hope for the best

5/3/2006 7:00:49 AM

yeah FUCK this exam. im definitely not going to spend as much time studying as i did for test 2. i'm mainly going to look over the test 1 stuff.

5/3/2006 2:01:51 PM

does anyone know if he left the tests out by his office?

5/3/2006 2:26:05 PM

^^ yea that's all i'm gonna do really. at this point it's just implementation of the formulas.

5/3/2006 2:28:14 PM

is the final open book and notes?

5/3/2006 5:08:46 PM

pretty sure it is.

5/3/2006 5:09:23 PM

the day of reckoning is upon us!

5/4/2006 10:38:35 AM

In Soviet Russia, Heat Transfers YOU!

5/4/2006 11:35:04 AM

did someone call him a communist when he left the room

5/4/2006 4:42:49 PM

yea a couple people did

5/4/2006 4:54:07 PM

so how did everyone think they did?

5/4/2006 5:59:04 PM

not as well as i wanted

5/4/2006 6:40:19 PM

I like that answer and think ill go with it also

5/4/2006 6:47:50 PM

I would have done pretty well...If i had notice there were 7 problems instead of 6....Idiot! What sucks was I got done 30 minutes before the time and spent the next 30 checking on my answers, and when he called time i saw #7
