forum project group
« on: May 04, 2010, 03:33:56 pm »
i just agreed a contract to develop a heat exchanger for a solar power company. It may lead to sponsorship of freeexampapers, the forum and maybe some students to go to university. At any rate it is a chance maybe for students to make some money maybe.

The physics is only a level standard and involves mostly fluid dynamics, thermal dynamics and gases. We have two weeks to produce a basic design that the company can place orders for components on the basis of.
I have contacted the programmer and he is also involved, because the company want us to build a computer model which can be improved over time.

I am on a very old slow computer until my server has finished a disk check and cant post much until tomorrow.
We need the best mathematicians, physicists and computer geeks in the forum to work on this.

SO JOIN THE FORUM PROJECT GROUP

We have to weeks to get the first design out. After that we have to develop and improve it just as with any design.

Sounds interesting, but i havent started my A levels yet, starts from june 14th.

I recommend Nid, ~A.F~, the dude and Tyserius - Arguably the best mathematician after u in the forum ( To my knowledge)
divine intervention!
