With the dramatic advancement of computer technology, students in chemical engineering must have a firm understanding of complex transport phenomena analysis, which they will certainly encounter as professionals. Bringing together a wealth of professional and instructional experience, this graduate-level curriculum focuses on the current concepts of fluid mechanics, turbulent flow, and multiphase flow, rather than numerics and laminar flow. It stresses a problem-solving approach that incorporates a reliance on the Computational Fluid Dymanics Code (CFD). The text presents one code at a time so that students are better able to understand the strengths and limitations of the technique, which they will use frequently in their profession.
