Annotation -
Local balances represent a basic approach to describe processes in spatially distributed systems. Local balances of mass, energy and momentum will be discussed, corresponding set of partial differential equations (PDEs) will be derived and appropriate initial and boundary conditions will be formulated. Numerical solution of PDE system will be presented using a commercial PDE solver.

Aim of the course -

Students shall be able

  • to formulate balance equations of mass, energy and momentum in spatially distributed systems, including appropriate initial and boundary conditions
  • to solve set of PDEs in spatially one-, two- and three-dimensional systems, and to present results in a graphical form
  • to apply description based on local balances to model selected standard unit operation (e. g., heat exchanger, mixer etc.)
