HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER
   2016/2017, Semester 2
   School of Continuing & Lifelong Edn (School of Continuing & Lifelong Edn)
Modular Credits: 4
  Tags: CN2125E

Learning Outcomes

TopStudents will learn the fundamental principles of heat and mass transfer relevant to the chemical engineering discipline. This course considers three modes of heat transfer, namely, conduction, convection, and radiation. For heat conduction, both steady and unsteady states are examined. These are followed by an analysis for convective heat transfer and heat transfer with phase change, and subsequently radiation heat transfer. Steady and unsteady-state molecular diffusion will be studied, while convective mass transfer will be analyzed using exact and approximate integral analysis. Finally, analogies between mass, heat and momentum transfer will be discussed to integrate the concepts of transport phenomena. The module is targeted at the second year part-time chemical engineering students with some working experience in the industry.
