Peer reviewedDixon, Anthony G. – Chemical Engineering Education, 1987
Describes the Heat Exchanger Network Synthesis (HENS) program used at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (Massachusetts) as an aid to teaching the energy integration step in process design. Focuses on the benefits of the computer graphics used in the program to increase the speed of generating and changing networks. (TW)

Peer reviewedLynch, Alan; Jenison, Roland – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987
Demonstrates one method for finding parallel tangents to a cylinder based on geometric properties of the three dimensional representation of the cylinders. Uses rotational transformations to obtain a three dimensional view. Provides a starting point for those studying geometric methods as a lead into computer assisted drafting. (CW)

Peer reviewedGoss, Larry D. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987
Discusses coordinate systems, units of measure, scaling and levels as they relate to a database generated by a computer in a spatial rather than planer location. Describes geometric-oriented input, direct coordinates, transformations, annotation, editing and patterns. Stresses that hand drafting emulation is a short-sighted approach to…

Peer reviewedAudi, M. S. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987
Suggests a method of integrating teaching microcomputer graphics in engineering curricula without encroaching on the fundamental engineering courses. Includes examples of engineering graphics produced by commercial programs and others produced by high-level language programing in a limited credit hour segment of an educational program. (CW)

Peer reviewedKnoblock, Edward W. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1987
Describes the process of planning, designing and implementing a computer-assisted design laboratory to serve both a freshman engineering graphics and a sophomore engineering design course. Discusses some of the impact that this development had on other college facilities. Includes goals, testing, installation, current use, examples of assignments,…
