Abstract:
This research endeavors to address critical challenges in engineering
education by focusing on the development of a comprehensive teaching aid
model centered on Spill and Make-up Line in Closed Feed System. The
objectives of this study are threefold: Firstly, to develop a model that
intricately replicates the operational intricacies of the Spill and Make-up Line
in a Closed Feed System; secondly, to simulate the mechanisms inherent in
these lines, providing students with a dynamic and interactive learning
experience; and thirdly, to ascertain the various components and circulations
within the Spill and Make-Up Line in a Closed Feed System.
The motivation behind this research stems from identified deficiencies
in current educational tools, primarily characterized by the absence of robust
simulation models capable of accurately mirroring closed feed systems'
operations. This research seeks to address the first problem statement by
providing an innovative model that enhances practical insights into these
systems. Additionally, the study recognizes size and portability issues as a
hindrance to effective learning, as the actual components of closed feed
systems are often large and unwieldy. The second problem statement
underscores the impracticality of these components and emphasizes the
necessity for more accessible teaching aids. Lastly, the knowledge gap
concerning closed feed systems and boiler technology serves as the third
problem statement, accentuating the need for educational tools that facilitate
a foundational understanding.
Through a meticulous examination of these problem statements, this
research aims to contribute to the improvement of engineering education by
providing an effective, portable, and knowledge-enriching instructional tool for
students grappling with the complexities of Spill and Make-up Line in Closed
Feed Systems.
