A Simple Experiment to Expose Misconceptions About the Bernoulli Equation

Abstract: A series of laboratory exercises has been developed to aid in the teaching of thermal and fluid sciences to undergraduate engineers. The exercises use simple hardware and a guided-inquiry approach to expose student misconceptions and to develop deeper understanding of basic concepts. This paper focuses on one of the laboratory exercises, which uses a simple duct with a sudden expansion to demonstrate the error caused by misapplication of the Bernoulli equation. The apparatus and the laboratory exercise are des… Show more

“…Ada beberapa miskonsepsi utama yang dialami siswa pada konsep prinsip bernoulli yaitu kecepatan aliran fluida sebanding dengan tekanannya atau semakin besar kecepatan fluida maka semakin besar tekanannya dan debit aliran fluida (v) berbanding terbalik dengan luas penampang pipa (Recktenwald et al, 2010;Saputra et al, 2020;Suarez et al, 2017). Beberapa hasil penelitian menjelaskan alasan terjadi-nya miskonsepsi pada konsep tersebut yaitu siswa beranggapan bahwa tekanan sama dengan gaya sehingga mereka kemudian menghubungkan konsep gaya dengan kecepatan dari percepatan (Saputra et al, 2020).…”

“…On the other hand, students' understanding of ideal fluid hydrodynamics has received less attention. Studies in existing literature mainly relate to the application of Bernoulli's equation and the results that might derive from it [7][8][9][10].…”

“…In fluid mechanics, literature on teaching, formative assessment, remedial instruction, and tools are expanding much more than excepted. It has been reported that concepts from pressure and fluid statics [57,[60][61][62][63][64][65], to Archimedes' principle [66], to Bernoulli's law often lead to misunderstandings [67][68][69][70][71][72]. To combat such misconceptions, various studies have developed approaches such as CFD instrumentation, e-learning, experimental hands-on implementation, interview analyses, student engagement, and interactive learning techniques, among others [73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80].…”
