The objective of the course:
Clarify and practice the principles of the basic three main classes of the discussed processes, which are hydrodynamic processes (pumping, filtration, sedimentation, fluidization, mixing), heat transfer (heat exchangers, heat loss, boiling, condensation) and mass sharing (equilibrium and crystallization dynamics, absorption), distillation, drying, adsorption), - provide commentary introduction to diffusion separation processes.
Learning outcomes:
- the ability to recognize technological problems and propose a strategy of a solution,
- to apply energy and material balance,
- the ability to describe filtration, drying, evaporation, and distillation process,
- to design an optimal heat exchanger.
Acquired skills:
- the ability to design parameters of the equipment,
- the ability to perform material and energy balances of reasonably complex technological units,
- the ability to design optimal conditions for the operation of the heat exchanger, evaporator, jet dryer, filter equipment, and the like, simulation and optimization calculations on existing equipment with respect to fluctuating parameters of input parameters,
- the ability to apply the theoretical knowledge to more complex technological processes,
- the ability to identify the necessary physical quantities to describe the process and find them in chemical engineering tables and diagrams. |
