CE 30-1 Structures. Prerequisite, First Semester Phys 30.
This course forms a transition between the previous
courses of mechanics (statics) and strength of materials
and the course in structures CE 30-2 given to the senior
civil students. It treats of a more rounded and complete
study of reaction and internal stresses in roof trusses
and statically determinate bridges by both analytical and
graphical methods. Special emphasis is placed upon the
construction and use of influence lines. A short time is
devoted to the approximate solution of lateral bracing and
portals.
_Text: Sutherland and Bowman “Structural Theory”, 2nd Ed._
CE 30-2 Structures. Prerequisites, CE 30-1, complete course. Phys 30.
The work of this course is divided between a theoretical
study of statically indeterminate structures and the design
of a variety of small structures. A thorough theoretical
study is made of the deflection of beams and trusses and
of the methods of least work, slope deflection, moment
distribution, and the column analogy. Secondary stresses,
space framework and wind stresses in buildings receive
their proportion of attention. Throughout the work in
theory those structures that are to be later designed and
detailed are used for class problems, thereby making a
close tie between the theory and design and eliminating
an unnecessary amount of duplication in arithmetical
calculations. Problems are given in the design of, and
complete preparation of plans for roof trusses, buildings,
foundations, abutments, retaining walls, trestles, trusses,
girders, and frames of concrete, steel, and wood, with
a study of timber, riveted, and welded framing. Highway
loadings are used in preference to railroad loadings in
order to simplify computations. Particular emphasis is
placed upon orderly and complete computations, standard
and practical considerations of design and detail, and
thoroughness and neatness in drafting. Given to senior
students in civil engineering.

The problems and techniques associated with the production, delivery, utilization and control of energy in the electrical form are given the inclusive title of Electrical Engineering. Any general preparation for the recognition and analysis of these problems and the mastery of these techniques, in their infinite variety, must, of necessity, emphasize the basic conceptions and principles which are of widest application. Specific applications, sufficient in number and variety to maintain the student’s interest and broaden his point of view are, however, useful supplements.
The work of the freshman and sophomore years consists, primarily, of the foundation mathematics, physics, English and mechanical drafting usually given to all engineering students. In addition, a course in the fundamental electrical units and their application to the magnetic, electro-static and electric circuits, is given. This is followed by a general engineering course in d-c and a-c circuits. The classroom work is paralleled by a laboratory course in electrical measurements.
During the upper class years the principles of electrical engineering are applied to many problems; characteristics and operation of direct-current, synchronous, and induction machinery, rectification, wave form analysis, transient phenomena, power plant equipment, transmission and distribution and electro-physical measurements in magnetism, in induction and capacitance by balance methods and in multi-electrode vacuum tube characteristics.
A student branch of The American Institute of Electrical Engineers holds about eight or ten meetings each year. All upper classmen become members and are expected to attend its meetings. The second year men are invited to join the local society.
Since electrical engineering is closely related to mechanical and chemical engineering much material from these branches is included in the course.
The Electrical Laboratories
The electrical laboratories are located on the first floor of the Laboratory Building. A centrally located stock room houses much of the equipment used for test and measurement.
Electric power for the laboratories is obtained from the Public Service Electric & Gas Company through a 240-volt, 3-phase, 60-cycle alternating current line. By means of transformers, motor-generator sets, synchronous converters, oscillators, rectifiers, and storage batteries, direct or alternating current power of wide range of voltage and frequency is available. This power can be distributed to any part of the laboratories on either two or three wire lines, through a carefully planned distribution system.
Equipment is available for setting up all types of electric circuits, reactive and non-reactive, for either direct or alternating current power, together with the usual voltmeters, ammeters, and wattmeters, required in the measurement of these circuits.
Several examples of each of the fundamental types of generators and motors for both direct and alternating current, as well as the usual transformers and various special types are conveniently arranged for study and complete tests.
Special types of instruments for extreme range of voltage current and power are also available, together with special instruments such as frequency meters, power factor meters, electro-static voltmeters, oscillographs, and bridge networks for resistance, capacitance and inductance.
Provision is also made for extensive study of the fundamental operating characteristics of the vacuum tubes of many kinds which are so widely used in the control of electric power in its various forms.
The following equipment is worthy of special mention:
A General Electric Educational Set consisting of a synchronous machine; a wound-rotor induction machine; a squirrel cage induction machine; and a double-current generator, each with a 15 k v a rating and wound for either 1, 2, 3 or 6 phase operation.
A Westinghouse synchronous motor-generator set, rated at 15 k v a and wound for 1, 2, 3 or 6 phases. One machine is arranged as a cradle dynamometer and equipped for phase shifting.
A General Electric sine-wave generator coupled to a synchronous motor. This machine generates a voltage wave which conforms accurately to standard wave form. It has a capacity of 5 k v a for three phases and has a ring gear mechanism for phase shifting.
A two-unit General Electric motor-generator set consisting of one 5 k v a generator capable of single-, three- or six-phase operation at 110/220 volts. This is coupled to a 5-kw, 250-volt d-c machine.
Three mercury-arc rectifiers complete with switchboards and auxiliaries.
Three General Electric Oscillographs complete with all auxiliary apparatus.
One Westinghouse four-element Oscillograph.
One Westinghouse Osiso.
One Sundt Neobeam Oscilloscope.
One Du Mont Cathode-Ray Oscilloscope.
One Westinghouse Audio Oscillator.
One Western Electric Audio Oscillator.

The four year course in Industrial Chemistry is broad in scope and is designed to give the student a thorough background in the fundamental sciences, engineering subjects, and the necessary cultural subjects. It forms an adequate basis for advanced courses of a professional nature in science and engineering and, by further training, in the methods of scientific research.
The earlier part of the course provides the essential foundations of mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Later comes thorough drill in the assimilation, acquirement of facility of application, and blending of the more theoretical instruction of the earlier years.
To give the student a sound grasp of the subject matter, problems of various types form an important part of the curriculum. The laboratory work is almost exclusively quantitative. The student is required to record observations and to express experimental data in an orderly and precise manner.
Incidental to the formal instruction are such matters as the use of library, methods of finding all that is known of a particular product or process, and the writing of reports.
Courses of a cultural nature constitute an important part of the curriculum. Their purpose is to develop in the young technical worker an intelligent approach to contacts with his fellow workers and to responsibilities of a broader social nature. Like all technical men, the chemist may become a business executive, in which event some breadth of vision may be of the utmost importance to him.
The Chemistry Laboratories
These laboratories are located on the top floor of the Laboratory Building, the laboratories being two in number. The large laboratory is devoted to courses in General Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis, and the smaller one to more advanced work in analysis and to organic chemistry. There is also a balance room and a stock room, both easily accessible to the two laboratories.
The department possesses the material equipment necessary for work in inorganic, organic, analytical and industrial chemistry. Fume closets are installed in both laboratories for the proper handling of processes involving harmful fumes. A continuous supply of distilled water is furnished by an enclosed still. A parsons generator supplies hydrogen sulfide for the work in qualitative analysis.
Among the various special pieces of apparatus are the following: A Parr calorimeter, a centrifuge, conductivity apparatus, mechanical grinder, pumps for the production of compressed air and suction, various special pieces of apparatus for distillation and filtration and for the handling of gases.
The Chemical Engineering Laboratory
The Chemical Engineering Laboratory is arranged for the study of unit operations by the students of the chemical course. The apparatus is commercial equipment of modern design, which has been equipped with numerous meters, gauges and measuring devices for accurately testing the machines. The students make quantitative studies of factory operations and of the problems involved in the design of equipment. The unit operations studied include heat transfer, fluid flow, distillation, evaporation, drying, etc.
A copper, forced-convection, vacuum evaporator, having a capacity of one thousand pounds of water per hour is available. This machine is so equipped that accurate heat and material balances may be obtained and operation costs calculated as in commercial practice.
A very flexible apparatus is the copper experimental distillation unit, which is 23 feet high. This consists of a 50-gallon kettle, a 19-plate rectifying column, condensers, cooler and an automatic decanter and feed control. Five of the sections of the column are of Pyrex glass, so the actual operation can be carefully studied. It can be operated on several modifications of batch, steam or continuous distillation.
The batch drier, equipped with automatic temperature and humidity control, is arranged for the study of the drying process as it is carried out in commercial practice.
A rotary suction drum filter, Sweetland, plate and frame, and stoneware suction filter are used in experiments on filtration.
Experiments on grinding include a study of a Ball Mill, Jaw Crusher, Micro pulverizer, and an Attrition Mill.
The laboratory is also equipped with a centrifuge, sulfonator, vacuum crystallizer, autoclave and other pieces of equipment, such as pyrometers, necessary for experimental runs on the various units.

SUBJECTS OF INSTRUCTION in the DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY
CH 11 General Chemistry.
Descriptive inorganic chemistry, chemical theory, and
elementary applied chemistry. Besides a study of the
chemistry of the elements and their compounds, the
course includes a brief survey of certain of the more
important industrial processes, such as the manufacture
of the elementary gases, the acids, soda, glass, cement,
and metals. The laboratory work is chosen so as to
illustrate the current lectures. In order to emphasize the
quantitative nature of the science, the student is required
to solve a large number of numerical problems based on
chemical processes and to do a certain amount of actual
quantitative work in the laboratory.
_Texts: McPherson and Henderson, “A Course in General
Chemistry”; McPherson, Henderson and Evans, “Laboratory
Manual in General Chemistry”; Bradley, “Problems in General
Chemistry”._
CH 21 Qualitative Analysis.
_For Chemical Students._ This course includes the analysis
of numerous unknowns for both the anions and the cations.
Class work covers the practical and theoretical aspects
of analysis, including the theory of electrolytes, ionic
equilibrium and the law of mass action.
_Text: McAlpine and Soule, “Qualitative Chemical Analysis”._
_For Civil Students._ Laboratory work, the same as CH 21.
Class work consists of the chemistry of materials used in
engineering work, chemical theory and special topics.
_Texts: Leighou, “Chemistry of Engineering Materials”;
Cornog & Vosburgh, “Introductory Qualitative Analysis”._
_For Electrical and Mechanical Students._ This course is
designed to acquaint the students with the methods of
analysis and the application of chemical principles to
engineering work. Laboratory work consists of qualitative
analysis, and water and fuel analysis. Class work includes
the application of chemical theory and such special topics
as alloys, fuels, corrosion and the treatment of water for
industrial and sanitary purposes.
_Texts: Chapin, “Second Year College Chemistry”; Cornog &
Vosburgh, “Introductory Qualitative Analysis”._
CH 22 Advanced Inorganic Chemistry.
This course undertakes a more thorough treatment of the
modern developments of inorganic chemistry than is possible
in course CH 11. Such topics as the mass law, vapor
pressure, dissociation, velocity of reaction, and kinetic
theory are studied in considerable detail. Attention is
also given to the recent ideas of the structure of the
atom. The course is profusely illustrated by problems.
_Texts: Chapin, “Second Year College Chemistry”; Hougen and
Watson, “Industrial Chemical Calculations”._
CH 31 Physical Chemistry. Junior Year.
CH 41 Physical Chemistry. Senior Year.
These two courses form a continuous treatment, the
subject matter of which is selected with a more especial
view to the needs of students entering the chemical
industries than is usual in this subject. The abstract
principles of chemistry are developed in such a way as
to emphasize their practical importance, and to lead the
student to facility and confidence in the application of
theoretical knowledge to his everyday work. A large part
of the work consists to the solution of problems by the
students. The problems are discussed in detail, the aim
being to develop the power to use principles, rather than
merely to impart factual knowledge of the phenomena. The
topics considered in the course are the pressure-volume
relations of gases, the properties of solutions related
to molal composition, the conduction of electricity
in solutions, the ionic theory, the mass-action law
applied to the rate and equilibrium of chemical changes,
heterogeneous equilibrium from the phase-rule standpoint,
thermo-chemistry and thermo-dynamic chemistry. Under
the latter topic are considered the free-energy change
attending chemical reactions, the maximum work obtainable
from them, the effect of temperature on free-energy and
a number of applied topics in electro-chemistry such as
electro-motive force of voltaic cells, electrode potentials
in relation to the equilibrium of oxidation and reduction
reactions, electrolysis in relation to electromotive force
and concentration, and gas polarization. Throughout the
two courses, the scientific background of the chemical
industries is constantly impressed upon the student. Only
by constantly applying the principles to concrete problems
will the student acquire such a knowledge and the power to
use it in new cases.
_Text: Getman and Daniels, “Outline of Theoretical
Chemistry” (for CH 31 and CH 41)._
CH 32 Quantitative Analysis.
This course includes both the theory and the practice of
quantitative analysis. In the laboratory, training is given
in the correct technique of quantitative work, first in
volumetric and then in gravimetric determinations. Later,
extended analyses are carried out. In the classroom the
principles underlying the laboratory work are studied;
additional methods also are considered. Throughout the
year the student receives training in the calculations of
analytical chemistry, with special attention to the errors
of measurement. Particular consideration is given to the
accuracy of the methods studied, in connection with the
requirements of their use, and to the saving of time by
proper planning of work and choice of method.
_Texts: Kolthoff and Sandell, “Textbook of Quantitative
Inorganic Analysis”; Giesy, “Problems in Quantitative
Analysis”._
CH 33 Thermodynamics.
This follows the lines of course ME 31 Thermodynamics but
is adapted to the needs of industrial chemists.
_Text: Lichty, “Thermodynamics”._
CH 41 Physical Chemistry.
(See CH 31.)
CH 42 Organic Chemistry. Prerequisites, CH 11, CH 31, CH 32.

The Mechanical Engineer is concerned with the problems of design, construction and operation of machine tools, of the power machinery to operate these tools and of power machinery in general, such as refrigeration, ventilation, automotive, hydraulic and heat transfer machines. He is greatly concerned with the problems of industrial management and public affairs in general. The subject matter covered by this department has been developed with these points in mind.
The first two years of the course develop a background of mathematics, physics, chemistry and English upon which the technical subjects of the last two years depend. An introduction to the technical phase of the work is had in this period through such subjects as engineering drawing, shop work and electricity. A practical view-point may be developed by work in industry during the summers.
In the third year, the student is introduced to the several basic courses in engineering such as thermodynamics, heat power, hydraulics, strength of materials, machine design and electricity. A knowledge of the problems of our social and industrial life is obtained by a study of economics, staff control and business law.
The student’s time in the fourth year, is divided between strictly technical work in college and an attempt to co-ordinate with this the cooperative industrial work in industry. In this manner, the practical side of his profession is emphasized. The technical work in school consists of applying the principles developed in the previous year to definite engineering problems. This is done by a study of power plants, turbines, internal combustion engines, heating and ventilation and structural design. In the laboratories, tests are made on various machines to determine their operating characteristics; fuels and lubricating oils are examined; materials are studied both from the machine tool view-point and their heat treatment and metallurgical properties. The economic side of the question is further emphasized by courses in management and staff control.
Students who have satisfactorily completed the first three years of work in mechanical engineering may choose the aeronautical option courses in the fourth year. In this course, some of the more general subjects in mechanical engineering are replaced by more specialized instruction in aeronautics.
Arrangements may be made whereby students of aeronautical subjects, who wish to enroll in the aircraft mechanics course at the Casey Jones School in Newark or in flying courses at the various fields, will receive credit in their co-operative work for such time spent in these courses. This work may be taken during the summer or during the regular co-operative period. The cost of such courses must be carried by the student; it is not included in the regular college fees.
The student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers holds eight to ten meetings a year at the college. All students in the department are expected to attend these meetings.
Engineering Drawing
The aim in Engineering Drawing is to so train all the students of the engineering departments that they will be able to write, to read, and to understand the universal language of Engineering Drawing.
The work is designed as training for engineers, not draftsmen, therefore an attempt has been made to eliminate copy work as such, and to place stress upon an understanding of what is being done and of the reasons for doing it that way.
The ability to make good freehand sketches rapidly, easily and accurately is an asset to any engineer. Much time and attention is, therefore, devoted to sketching. An engineer must, also, be able to inspect a drawing and know whether or not it is well drawn, accurate and complete, so training is given in checking drawings.
The work is so planned that opportunities for the exercise of planning, judgment and initiative are given to each student.
Every student is urged to set for himself a high standard in each of the following items:
1. Accuracy--accuracy is a necessity.
Exactness, completeness, and fitness are of the utmost importance in the work of an engineer. A working drawing, no matter how pleasing its appearance, is worthless if the dimensions on it are incorrect, if important dimensions and notes are lacking, or if a job completed according to instructions on it will not function properly. Drawings lacking in accuracy are not acceptable.
2. Appearance--a good appearance is a predisposing factor.
The appearance of a drawing depends upon a few simple and easily mastered elements.
_Balance_: No crowding, no great open spaces. _Proportion_: Of letters to views--of views to the size of the drawing. _Line Work_: Clear-cut and uniform. _Lettering_: Well formed and well proportioned. Poorly lettered drawings are not acceptable. _Cleanliness_: Keep hands and tools clean.
3. Speed--Time is the essence of the contract.
Speed depends upon understanding, planning, mastering of technique and most of all upon concentration.
The Mechanical Engineering Laboratories
The Mechanical Engineering Laboratory is designed to meet the general purposes of testing and studying machines and materials. It consists of several distinct sections devoted to the special phases of experimental engineering. These sections are as follows: steam, internal combustion engines, flow of fluids, hydraulics, fuels and oils, metallurgy and heat treatment, and machine tools.
The steam division of the laboratory consists of a steam boiler, simple, automatic and compound engines, low speed and high speed turbines, jet and surface condensers, feedwater heater, pumps, weighing tanks, meters and calorimeters. Each machine is equipped with apparatus for measuring quantities conforming with the A. S. M. E. test codes.
The internal combustion engine section includes Diesel engines, a gas engine, Diesel and gasoline automotive engines and water and air cooled airplane engines. Each test engine is connected to a dynamometer. Instruments are provided for making the necessary measurements called for in standard testing. Several engines are used for study purposes.
The flow of fluids laboratory makes provisions for the study of the flow characteristics of steam, air and liquids. Instruments used in measuring the flow of fluids are examined and tested. Steam nozzles and orifices are attached to a condenser for steam flow tests. A forced draft fan and a two-stage air compressor provide air for the investigation of the flow in ducts, nozzles, orifices and general air machines. A small wind-tunnel permits the examination of air flow around small models. The loss of head in pipes, fittings and valves can be tested.
The hydraulic division contains centrifugal and reciprocating pumps, an open flow channel, weirs, nozzles, orifices, weighing tanks and meters. Hydraulic machines are tested. The friction loss in pipes and fittings is examined.
The fuel and oil section of the laboratory is equipped to make the various standard test of these materials. This includes calorimeters, viscosimeters, flash and fire point testers, distillation outfit and flue-gas analysis equipment. A lubarometer is used to test the coefficient of friction of lubricating oils and to study the effects of various bearing metals.
The metallographic and heat treatment laboratories are equipped with gas and electric furnaces, each with temperature measuring instruments, for the melting and heat treatment of metals. Microscopes, both visual and photographic, are used for the examination of metal structures. Grinding and polishing machines are provided for the preparation of specimens.
The machine tool section of the laboratory is equipped with lathes, milling machines, shapers, grinders, gas welding outfit and the usual small tools required for metal cutting. While the major part of the machine shop instruction is given in connection with the co-operative industrial work, this laboratory is used to demonstrate shop practice and machine tool methods in general.
The test work in the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory is designed to familiarize the student with the construction details, features of operation, methods of control and the comparative merits of the various machines. The student is taught to operate these machines in the safest possible manner and test them along the lines adopted by the various professional engineering societies.
