CHE2162 - Material and energy balances

Leader: H Wang

Offered

Clayton Second semester 2008 (Day)
Sunway Second semester 2008 (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

Tests 10%
Projects 30%
Examination (3 hours): 60%
Students are required to achieve at least 45% in the total continuous assessment component (assignments, tests, mid-semester exams, laboratory reports) and at least 45% in the final examination component. Students faiing to achieve this requirement will be given a maximum of 44% in the unit.
