3.00 Credits
Modern solution techniques including semi-analytical, approximation, and numerical methods are introduced and applied to linear and nonlinear transport phenomena problems and chemical engineering systems. Similarity theory and integral methods, perturbation techniques, and orthogonal collocation, indispensable to chemical engineering, are discussed. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CHME 6610 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
Analysis of ideal and nonideal chemical reactor operation with simple and multiple homogeneous, heterogeneous, and catalytic reactions. Interplay of chemical and mass, energy and momentum transport processes in model reactors and catalytic particles. Topics include transient and steady-state operation, residence time distribution, multiplicity, stability, selectivity control, and catalyst deactivation. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CHME 4500 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
-

Application of modern control theory to chemical processes. Introduction to on-line data acquisition and computer control. Real-time process optimization and optimal control theory. Estimation theory and adaptive control. Introduction to stochastic control and to the control of large-scale distribution systems. Case studies via computer-aided design programs. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CHME 4030 or equivalent. When Offered: Offered on sufficient demand. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
Process synthesis with applications to heat exchange networks, energy-integrated separation sequences, and reactor networks. Analysis, design, and optimization of large-scale systems. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: chemical engineering degree or permission of instructor. When Offered: Offered on sufficient demand. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
Review of fundamentals of thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, fluid mechanics, and modern diagnostics. Discussion of flame propagation, thermal and chain explosions, stirred reactors, detonations, droplet combustion, and turbulent jet flames. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: permission of instructor. When Offered: Spring term odd-numbered years. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as MANE 6830. Students cannot receive credit for both this course and MANE 6830. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended to give students a state-of-the-art understanding about single and multicomponent boiling and condensation heat transfer phenomena. Applications include the analysis of nuclear reactors, oil wells, and chemical process equipment. Students satisfactorily completing this course are expected to be able to thoroughly understand the current thermal-hydraulics literature on multiphase heat and mass transfer and be able to conduct independent research in this field. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: a working knowledge of fluid mechanics and heat transfer. When Offered: Fall term annually. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as MANE 6840. Students cannot obtain credit for both this course and MANE 6840. Credit Hours: 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended to give students a state-of-the-art understanding in multicomponent flow phenomena. Applications in the chemical process, petroleum recovery, and fossil/nuclear power industries will be given. Specific areas of coverage include two-phase: fluid mechanics, pressure drop, modeling and analysis, stability analysis, critical flow and dynamic waves, flow regime analysis, and phase separation and distribution phenomena. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CHME 6840 or MANE 6840. When Offered: Spring term annually. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as MANE 6850. Students cannot obtain credit for this course and MANE 6850. Credit Hours: 3
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Credit Hours: 1 to 3
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
State-of the-art formal courses in specialized areas suitable for master's and doctoral programs. Usually two topics offered per term. Typical topics include colloidal dynamics, dispersion and mixing, fluidation, heterogeneous catalysis, polymer reaction engineering, stochastic processes, and statistical mechanics. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 1 to 3
-
3.00 Credits
Active participation in a semester-long project, under the supervision of a faculty adviser. A Professional Project often serves as a culminating experience for a Professional Master's program but, with departmental or school approval, can be used to fulfill other program requirements. With approval, students may register for more than one Professional Project. Professional Projects must result in documentation established by each department or school, but are not submitted to the Graduate School and are not archived in the library. Grades of A, B, C, or F are assigned by the faculty adviser at the end of the semester. If not completed on time, a formal Incomplete grade may be assigned by the faculty adviser, listing the work remaining to be completed and the time limit for completing this work.
