  • Modeling hop kilning with respect to energy consumption and drying kinetics

    Creator:
    Thomas, Matthew W.
    Abstract:
    Currently, little work has been performed studying energy consumption in hop kilning. This thesis explores drying with an alternative drying schedule that extends the initially elevated drying temperature currently used by growers and examines its impact on drying time and energy use. Extending the time of the initially elevated drying...

  • Melting Stage Analysis for Indirect Freeze Desalination

    Creator:
    Pratt, Mason G.
    Abstract:
    To investigate the melting stage of indirect freeze desalination three numerical models were developed. A zeroth, first, and second order analyses modeled the melting of ice around the outside of a pipe as a function of time. The zeroth order analysis assumes the system to be steady state. The first...

  • Experience of Women in STEM: Three Ways

    Creator:
    Andreyka, Elizabeth O.
    Abstract:
    The intent of this thesis is to develop three creative non-fiction essays exploring the experience of being an undergraduate woman in a STEM field. The essays will all take on variations in form, humor, and perspectives. The purpose is to explore the position of women in STEM and the different...
