CH E 210.3
Fluid Mechanics I
2(3L-2P Alt. weeks)
Prerequisite(s): G E 125.
Corequisite(s): MATH 224.

Single phase fluid flow is considered for both gas and liquids. The mechanical energy balance and fluid force balance equations are developed with applications. Newtonian and non-Newtonian concepts are introduced including rheological measurement. The concepts of laminar and turbulent flow are developed and applied to flow in pipes and networks, and fluid metering. Compressible fluid flow is also introduced.

CH E 220.3
Introduction to Process Engineering
2(3L-1.5P)
Corequisite(s): CHEM 242.

The lectures and problems will illustrate the use of energy and material balances in chemical and biochemical engineering processes.

CH E 311.3
Mathematical Modelling I
1(3L-2P Alt. weeks)
Prerequisite(s): MATH 224 (taken) and CH E 220.

Numerical methods. Curve-fitting and approximation of functions. Fourier series and integral. Laplace transformation. Design of experiments

CH E 315.3
Mass Transfer I
2(3L-2P Alt. weeks)
Prerequisite(s): CH E 311 and 323.

Mass transfer operations involving contact by stages, including single-stage, binary multiple-stage contacting, and multicomponent multiple-stage contacting. Gas absorption, distillation, and liquid extraction are included.

CH E 320.3
Fluid Mechanics II
1(3L-2P Alt. weeks)
Prerequisite(s): CH E 210.

Pumping of fluids, gas-liquid pipe flow, flow through consolidated and unconsolidated porous media, fluidization and two-phase separation processes. Applications include topics of interest in the petroleum and mineral processing industries.

CH E 325.3
Process Engineering and Design I
2(3L)
Prerequisite(s): CH E 220 and 323.
Corequisite(s): CH E 324.

The concepts of industrial chemical process design, industrial economics, process optimization, process simulation and plant troubleshooting. Encourages students to use their fundamental knowledge in science and mathematics to solve practical chemical engineering problems. Special emphasis will be placed on safety, hazards, operability and loss prevention issues in chemical plants.

CH E 332.0
Seminar
1&2(1S)
