CHE 0300 - TRANSPORT PHENOMENA


Minimum Credits: 6
Maximum Credits: 6
Stresses analogies between the three modes of transport phenomena; momentum, mass, and heat transport. Covers from the molecular origins of transport up through continuum descriptions, as well as macroscopic balances. Reynolds and Colburn Analogies in Boundary-Layer Flow as well as direct comparison of linear transport relations, such as fluid drag and mass/heat convection will be a primary focus. Problems ranging from (traditional) packed bed reactors to micro-fluidics or micro-electromechanical systems will also be discussed.
