Material and energy balances ( 6 points, SCA Band 2, 0.125 EFTSL)

Leader:

Offered:
Clayton Second semester 2006 (Day)

Synopsis: This unit will introduce students to topics in material and energy balances through a systematic treatment of: multiple unit operations, recycle, reactions, equations of state, liquid-vapour phase equilibrium, liquid-liquid equilibrium, latent and sensible heat, heat of reactions, and computer aided simulation. The HYSIS process simulation software will be used to aid in the solution of more complex system.

Objectives: The student is expected to learn procedures to solve complex material and energy balances.

Assessment: Exam 60% (3 hours) + Projects 30% + Tests 10%

Contact Hours: Six hours contact per week comprising of lectures, practice classes, laboratories and project work. In addition, students are expected to devote 6 hours per week to private study.
