In a laboratory environment a comprehensive discussion about the jet characteristics where students can visualize the characteristics, pattern of the jet flow. A project-based learning approach is adopted to make students understanding better about the jet phenomenon. A novel experiment set up is established. Hydraulic analogy concept is adapted in the experimental procedures. A detailed time chart and critical examination of results are presented in this paper. The method of evaluation is presented with results. The discussed learning methodology seems to be very effective and significantly increases the understanding level.

Abstract


In a laboratory environment a comprehensive discussion about the jet characteristics where students can visualize the characteristics, pattern of the jet flow. A project-based learning approach is adopted to make students understanding better about the jet phenomenon. A novel experiment set up is established. Hydraulic analogy concept is adapted in the experimental procedures. A detailed time chart and critical examination of results are presented in this paper. The method of evaluation is presented with results. The discussed learning methodology seems to be very effective and significantly increases the understanding level.
