Heat and Mass Transport

Catalog description

The course builds understanding of mass and heat transfer, and introduces engineering aspects of transport. Topics in mass transfer include diffusion-limited reactions with applications in biomolecular systems, transport in porous media, and mass transfer across membranes with applications in chemical and biomolecular systems. Topics in heat transfer include the basic mechanisms of conduction and convection. Topics in engineering aspects of transport include flow in closed conduits, heat-transfer equipment, and examples of simultaneous heat and mass transfer. | Prerequisites: MA-UY 2132 or MA-UY 2034 .
