The
assessment will be
based on the following key points, which
must
therefore
be
covered
in
your reports.
a
Summary
: must include brief statements on the
following:
i.
Topic investigated and its significance in chemical
engineering.
ii.
Objectives
of
the
lab
study.
iii
Equipment
us
ed
iv
Key
results
v
Main
conclusions
vi
What you have learned from the lab
study.
b
Introduction
i.
Background,
including
theory and the
impo1iance
of the topic investigated
in
chemical engineering
and!or
petroleum
engineering.
ii.
Objectives
of
lab
study
(must
be
sta
ted
in
introduction
as
well
as
summary)
c
Experimental
Equipment
i.
Drawing showing layout of
equipment
ii.
Brief description indicating any special features, capacities, range, make
and
t
ype
(Do
Not
copy
the
lab
sheet).
d
Experimental Procedure and
Observa
tions
i.
Description of procedure, indicating measurements
taken
.
ii.
Observations made during investigation, making note of any
problems
encountered which may have affected
results.
e
Results and
Calculations
i.
Tabulate all results/measurements obtained during
lab
study.
ii.
Tabulate
all
calculated
results.
Show
sample
calculations
for
each
type
calculated
result.
f
Discussion of
Results
Discuss al results, making sure you address each objective in the light of your experiments. For each
objective explain the
underlying theory or the expectat
ions of established literature.
Discuss any
discrepancies between your results and theory, indicating
possible
reasons.
If
your
results
did
not
agree
with
theory
or
literature,
explain
why
and
indicate
what
the
underlying
t
heory
or
literature
says
about
the
correct
results
that should have
shown.
Use
this
section
to
demonstrate
that
you
have
understood
the
topic
you
investigated and its significance in chemical engineering and/or
petroleum
engineering;
explain
what
you
have
learned
as
a
result
of
carrying
out
the
study.
g
Conclusions
For
each
objective,
make
a
clear
conclusion
(precise
statement)
in
the
light
of
your
results and discussions,
indicating whether your coriclusion agrees with theory
or
established
literature.
h
Ref
erences
List
all
references
that
you
have
used
and
cited
in
your
report
.
