Principles Of Chemical Engineering Processes Material And Energy Balances

Principles of Chemical Engineering Processes: Material and Energy Balances continues to serve an essential text guiding students on the basic principles and calculation techniques used in the field of chemical engineering and providing a solid understanding of the fundamentals of the application of material and energy balances. This third edition has been updated to reflect advances in the field and feedback from professors and students. Packed with illustrative examples and case studies this book: • Features learning objectives and homework problems in every chapter new material on software modeling and additional and enhanced solved examples and problems. • Discusses problems in material and energy balances related to chemical reactors and explains the concepts of dimensions units psychrometry steam properties and conservation of mass and energy. • Demonstrates how Python MATLAB and Simulink can be used to solve complicated problems of material and energy balances and now features an introduction to the basics of building Simulink models. • Demonstrates how Python and its libraries such as Num Py and Sci Py can be used to solve complex problems in material and energy balances and introduces the basics of building models using Python frameworks similar to Simulink. • Shows how to solve steady-state and transient mass and energy balance problems involving multiple-unit processes and recycle bypass and purge streams. • Develops quantitative problem-solving skills specifically the ability to think quantitatively (including numbers and units) the ability to translate words into diagrams and mathematical expressions the ability to use common sense to interpret vague and ambiguous language in problem statements and the ability to make judicious use of approximations and reasonable assumptions to simplify problems. • Offers educational software and sample tutorials and quizzes for download. Aimed at both chemical engineering students and professionals this book helps readers understand how to calculate manage and apply the key ideas of material and energy use in chemical processes through real-world examples. Lecture slides and a solutions manual are available with qualifying course adoption. |Principles of Chemical Engineering Processes Material and Energy Balances
