The goal of this learning outcome is to develop, solve and analyze process models by applying fundamental concepts from physics, biology, chemistry and mathematics. The elements of this learning outcome demonstrate a fundamental understanding of the science and mathematics that govern chemical engineering models. Each problem is associated with coming to a conclusion about the resulting data and behavior of a system using fundamental concepts. Systems that are solved in this learning outcome include distillation, equilibrium, catalysis, and fluid flow in a pipe. The elements used are given below:
Application of the Bernoulli Equation (Quiz 2, Problem 2)
Derivation of Concentration Profiles Along Catalytic Pores (Homework 3, Problem 2)
Equilibrium Stage Contact of a Gas-Liquid System (Homework 5, 22.1-4)
McCabe-Thiele Method (Homework 6, 26.4-1)
Pressure Drop in Compressible Flow (Homework 1, 5.2-2)
