Objectives

To train the students with computational fluid dynamics-CFD tools, for the design and simulation of several processing operations relevant to the chemical engineering processes.

Program

Project Based Learning study of one processing unit of a chemical engineering local plant using FLUENT as a CFD tool. The project will include fieldwork at the plant, process unit modelling and simulation.

Mandatory literature

Anderson, Jr., John D.; Computational fluid dynamics, N. ISBN: 0-07-113210-4

Teaching methods and learning activities

Initial lectures on the principles of CFD, based on slide projection on video. The spefic project of the course, is implemented with a PBL- Project Based Learning - strategy, with student work mainly organized in groups, with calendadarized project milestones, and with individual research tasks assigned to students.

Evaluation Type

Distributed evaluation without final exam
