Process Modelling and Simulation

At the end of this course, the students should be able to: 1. generate and solve mathematical models involving chemical process systems such as transfer processes, separation processes, chemical reactions and thermodynamics; 2. use appropriate software to simulate various aspects of process systems including but not limited to flow sheets, vessels, piping, instrumentations, etc.; 3. use appropriate software to simulate material and energy balances for process plants; and 4. use appropriate software to simulate and solve process models.

Use of computational tools to solve models and implicit equations covering transfer, separation, chemical reactions and thermodynamic systems involving steady and unsteady state. Process simulation using the HYSYS software or any other process simulation software, including ASPEN, MATLAB, Geogebra, Winplot, ESES.
