1 Combined research & teaching labs: Engineering criteria and building system integration Tradeline College & University 2013

2 Agenda 1Combined research and teaching Discovery-based learning What is it? Why is it important? 2 Discovery-based learning STEM facilities Teaching & research labs area allocation Multi & interdisciplinary labs Support & collaboration requirements Program organization 3 Discovery-based Engineering Systems Design Robust/Flexible systems Energy efficient Utility requirements

3 1 Research + teaching = discovery-based learning What is it? Method of inquiry-based instruction Learners discover facts and relationships for themselves. Related Terms Problem based learning Challenge based learning Active learning Hands-on learning Enhanced learning

4 1 Research + teaching = discovery-based learning Why is it important? 200% students learned twice as much based on test results as the students in the traditional section Deslauriers, Schelew, and Wieman. (2011). Improved learning in a large-enrollment physics class. Science 332:

5 1 Research + teaching = discovery-based learning Why is it important? Increase learning Improve test scores Increase engagement Attract & retain students Increase student satisfaction

6 1 Research + teaching = discovery-based learning Why is it important? 68% of survey respondents indicate increased interest in STEM career as a result of undergraduate research opportunities Science VOL 316 4/27/07 Benefits of Undergraduate Research Experiences - Susan H.

77 Flexible & Energy Efficient Systems What are the utilities and services that should be provided? QUALITY and VARIETY not QUANTITY are the principal design criteria for utilities in the lab today. Water Chilled H₂O Steam Gases Air Vacuum Electricity Exhaust Waste Less non-potable more pure (RO vs. RODI) More process water (some local some central) Less (except for sterilizers can be local) More N2, CO2, less natural gas (less central) Clean Oil free Some local some central Clean / grounded More localized Less need

78 Innovative & Energy Efficient Mechanical Systems What are the metrics that allow for long term, robust flexible utilities and services serving instruments and equipment? HVAC Design Capacity Criteria for Various Space Types General Laboratories: 1 CFM/NSF (fume hood count dictates otherwise) Organic teaching lab; 150 CFM/LF of fume hood Biology (Gross Anatomy) Labs : 15 air Changes per hour General Classrooms: 1 CFM/NSF

79 Flexible & Energy Efficient Systems Energy Efficiency : Reducing Energy Use Variable Air Volume (reduces, cooling, and fan energy) Aggressive controls (reduces heating and cooling energy) Low pressure drop (air distribution system (reduces fan energy) Demand based air volume flow rate control (reduces heating, cooling, and fan energy) Chilled beams (reduces cooling and fan energy) Heat recovery (reduces heating and cooling energy)

80 Flexible & Energy Efficient Systems Conventional teaching lab building HVAC concept Dedicated lab system - 100% outdoor air Dedicated Admin/ Classroom/Lecture Hall system - 50% outdoor air

81 Flexible & Energy Efficient Systems Single air system serves lab and non-lab functions Greater flexibility for modifications Reduced energy cost Higher quality environment Reduced first cost / less equipment

82 Flexible & Energy Efficient Systems Conventional Lab Building HVAC Concept - Heat Recovery Applied to Lab Exhaust Heat Wheels Heat Pipe Glycol Run-around Loop

83 Flexible & Energy Efficient Systems Create manifold serving lab and non-lab functions Provides higher degree of redundancy

84 Services & Utilities Mechanical Services Capacity Design Criteria Steam Primarily for autoclaves 1000 PPH per autoclave Total PPH per 10,000 NSF Circulating Chilled Water 30 to 40 Tons per 100,000 GSF Process Chilled Water Environmental rooms 5 10 GPM per environmental room Lasers 5 10 GPM per laser Total GPM per 10,000 NSF

85 Services & Utilities Plumbing Services Capacity Design Criteria Lab compressed air 1 CFM per outlet at 40 PSIG PSIG system pressure Some prefer gaseous nitrogen in lieu of compressed air Lab vacuum 0.5 CFM per outlet at 19 in. Hg (482 Torr) Central system will address acoustic issues Pure water 0.25 gallons per day per student station 25 GPD per glass washer Consider circulating RO water with local polishers

86 Services & Utilities Electrical Services Capacity Design Criteria Normal power Receptacles: 5 15 Watts/NSF (receptacles inches on center at benches, grid of floor outlets, and receptacles integrated into furniture ) Lab equipment: 2 3 Watts/NSF (fume hoods and floor mounted equipment) Emergency(Standby) power Receptacles: 0.0 Watts/ NSF Lab equipment: 0.0 to 0.7 Watts/ NSF Technology Watts/NSF
