Annotation -
The course is planned for PHD students whose did not pass basic course of process and system engineering. General system engineering methods are presented including basics of graph theory. Main part contains mathematical modelling, simulation, simulation methods and softwares mainly oriented to steady-state simulation. The course also includes balances in industrial scale, synthesis, optimization and economic aspects of process design. The significant part of the course is dedicated to modeling of unit operations connected with solid phase.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

  • use simulation methods as a tool for process (chemical) engineering
  • actively use up-to-date simulation programs
  • use balance calculations in industrial scales
  • apply optimization and process syntheses at a basic level
