- Remote laboratory exercises are gaining popularity due to advances in communication technologies along with the need to provide realistic yet flexible educational tools for tomorrow's engineers. Laboratory exercises in turbomachinery aerodynamics generally involve substantial equipment in both size and power, so the development of remotely controlled facilities has perhaps not occurred as quickly as in other fields. This paper presents an overview of a new interactive laboratory exercise involving aerodynamics in a linear cascade of stator blades. The laboratory facility consists of a high-speed fan that delivers a maximum of 2.5 kg/s of air to the cascade. Traversing pneumatic probes are used to determine pressure profiles at upstream and downstream locations, and loss coefficients are later computed. Newly added equipment includes cameras, stepper motors, and a data acquisition and control system for remote operation. This paper presents the laboratory facility in more detail and includes discussions related to user interface issues, the development of a virtual laboratory exercise as a complement to experiments, and comparative evaluation of Virtual, Remote and Local laboratory exercises.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- An overview of computerized educational program (CompEduHPT) which includes several simulations was presented. These simulations provide an alternative way to learn, based on discovery and experience. All the simulations were preceded with theory chapters, quizzes and preparatory tasks to enable fruitful exercises to be designed. Evaluations show that a computerized program including multiple ways of learning provides considerable support to the conventional student-teacher way of learning.

Gas turbine simulations in the computerized educational program CompEduHPT : Three case studies

-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- An overview of the Computerized Educational Program (CompEduHPT) which includes different simulations was presented. These simulations give the students an outlook of the different parameters that affect the performance based on the ideal and real approach of gas turbine calculations. The simulations show the students the different aspects, effects and results when a calculation is made considering a mixture of two ideal gases. They also show the improvements in the performance of the gas turbine depending on the various options available.
