Honors Assignments and Group Goals

1) A new schedule will be posted by Friday

2) Plasma group period 6: Someone go to 407 and pick up xeroxing. Take 3 copies and mark the other 3 for plasma group and place in Honors 3 ( orange) outfolder.

3) Have group meetings tomorrow: Here is an updated version of the presentation Goals from last quarter. See that you can fulfill them.




Group Presentations: You must explain things in a way that shows you have gained understanding and will help the rest of us do the same. Cut and paste recitations from web pages etc. are not acceptable. Minimum 20 minutes ( that's not 5 minutes plus 15 minutes for questions).
Thermo group on work in your cycle, just the main points for isothermal, adiabatic and isobaric expansions. Can discuss regenerative feedwater heating if you really understand it. Need actual cycle values including flow rates, temperatures, enthalpies, at all points of cycle


Plamsa group drift, tansport and JXB = gradP

Magnet group, superconductivity, coil dimensions, coil currents actual values, coil features, conductors (materials) and forces.

Electric power Group: Farraday induction, conceptual design of turbine : field coils, stator coils, exciter; number of field poles, number of stator coils (windings) size of coils, currents and volts, strength of magnetic fields.

Heating group: description of ion source accelerator grid, neutralization chamber; beam dump. Provide design info such as size, voltage, energy, actual operating pressure. Use ITER as a basis, but you must understand what you are talking about.
