Numerical methods
Ce cours à pour but d'introduire aux étudiants des méthodes mathématiques et computationnelles afin de résoudre des problèmes typiques rencontrés dans le domaine de la chimie et du génie chimique. Les méthodes numériques seront mises en pratique en utilisant Python.
Fluid mechanics and transport phenomena
Le concept des équilibres Shell, les équations de Navier-Stokes et les équations de bilans différentiels généralisés pour le transport de chaleur et de masse sont donnés. Ces relations sont appliquées aux systèmes modèles. Les équilibres intégrés sont introduits dans le contexte des couches limites.
Chemical engineering product design
La conception de produits chimiques est devenu plus important en raison de changements majeurs dans l'industrie chimique. Ce cours présente la méthode de base pour la conception de produits chimiques et donne la pratique directe à cette procédure par l'intermédiaire d'un projet de conception.
