Verification of Darcy's Law
First-year engineering students at Virginia Tech are required to take an introduction to engineering course, EngE 1024 Engineering Exploration, in their first semester. One major objective of the course is to introduce the students to basic engineering principles and skills using hands-on projects. Each week the students attend a fifty minute lab, and one particular lab's purpose is to introduce students to data collection and analysis. This paper describes a lab that uses the derivation of Darcy's Law to demonstrate data collection, graphing, and curve fitting. A challenge in providing hands-on experiences to 1,300 students is the lack of proper lab space, heavy use of graduate teaching assistants, and time constraints. The project described by this paper has been designed to meet those challenges. The research described in this paper will replicate the development of the equation formulated by Henri Darcy in the nineteenth century. This will be done by repeating the experiment of Mr. Darcy, which will demonstrate to first-year engineering students the development of an empirical equation through an experiment.
