Syllabus

Laws of Thermodynamics Equilibrium and stability Thermodynamic properties of single phase and multiphase, single component and multicomponent systems. Reaction equilibrium Combined phase and reaction equilibrium

Course Objectives

  • TO to apply various equations of state for <br />estimation of vapor and liquid volumes and calculate various thermodynamic properties.
  • To able to list various courses of non ideality of <br />flow in reactors and draw the corresponding E curve. Students should be able to calculate the dispersion coefficient from given E- curve. Students should be able to fit a flow model for a reactor for given E curve.

Course Outcomes

Students should be able to calculate equilibrium compositions in vapor-liquid, and liquid-liquid using various equations and theories ( for application in gas- absorption, distillation extraction etc.) Students should be able to determine the importance of pore diffusion and external mass transfer for a given experimental rate concentration data. Students should be able to calculate the size required for conducting a given catalytic reaction, considering heat effects.
