Through graphical, computational and numerical programs, the subject will enable students to obtain essential information about modeling, simulation and optimization of transport and process equipment. The aim is to design an optimal device with knowledge of input data, solve continuously changing parameters for simulation and optimize the device based on specific requirements.
