Thermal Energy and Chemical Change Lab Report
Instructions: In this engineering lab, you will build and test a device that releases and absorbs
thermal energy in order to reach a goal. You will need to repeat tests of your device to make sure it
does not need to be redesigned or improved. Record your observations and test measurements in
the lab report below. You will submit your completed report.
Note: If you cannot complete this lab as directed, please contact your instructor for
assistance.
Name and Title:
Lilian Varley, Kerry Swan, 12/19/17, Thermal Energy and Chemical Lab.
Define the Problem:
The goal of this engineering lab is to construct a train that can reach the target station with the cargo
safely
Criteria and Limitations:
In this section, please list at least three criteria that must be met by your train design. Also include
any limitations that could prevent it from getting its cargo to the station.
Criteria Limitations
You must have at least one steam engine The train tracks will have two hills and spaces
where the track is missing
Must plan 3 designs before you test your
trains
You have to have at least one cargo box
Design Ideas—Pros and Cons:
In this section, describe three design ideas you have for your train. List at least one pro (a positive)
and one con (a negative) for each design option.
