Week 9

       During this week in lab, 67mL of distilled water was used. This was decided upon after reviewing the results of the previous week's lab. The prediction that was made concerning the addition of more water was correct - the heat pipe was able to operate at a higher temperature. It reached a temperature of 160°F, compared to 150°F when only 50mL of water was used.
       It was discussed that for the final presentation, the results of the various trials that were conducted will be shown on one graph. The results can then be easily seen compared to one another. The work will be divided to create the presentation, and there will be time set aside after class to practice presenting. In order for the presentation to go well, the knowledge gained throughout this lab must be utilized and expressed in a timely manner. By practicing multiple times, lapses in speech can be fixed and the expressed knowledge of heat pipes can be more solidified.
