The required text is “Transport Phenomena and Unit Operations: A
Combined Approach”, by Richard G. Griskey, John
Wiley and Sons, 2006.
The material contained in
this book is also covered in many other Transport Phenomena, Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer and Mass Transfer texts. Several alternative texts have been placed on
reserve in the library and are listed at the end of this handout.
Transport phenomena involves
the use of fundamental chemical engineering principles to solve problems in “momentum”, “heat” and “mass” transfer. The strong
similarities between the balances and calculation techniques used in these
areas will allow for the development of a greater understanding of individual
processes. In this course we will use fundamental mathematics and shell
balances to solve a variety of problems in these three areas. Emphasis will be on microscopic evaluation of
physical processes.
Specifically, following the completion of this course, the student
should be able to:
· Define a
Newtonian fluid, including the fundamental laws that govern Newtonian fluid
behavior.
·
Perform shell momentum balances for a variety of
geometries.
·
Simplify the equations of motion for a given
situation.
·
Describe the basic modes of heat transfer.
·
Evaluate the temperature profiles for a variety of
geometries and physical situations.
·
Define diffusivity.
·
Evaluate mass transfer rates using Fick’s Law of
Diffusion.
·
Perform microscopic mass balances for a variety of
geometries.
·
Evaluate concentration profiles in the presence of a
chemical reaction, with and without a catalyst.
·
Discuss mass transfer coefficient
·
Discuss analogies between heat, mass and momentum
transfer.
The topics to be discussed will be:
Introduction
Viscosity
Shell momentum balances
Equations of motion and applications
Mechanisms of heat transfer
Heat transfer equations and applications
Diffusivity
Mass transfer equations and applications
Mass transfer coefficient
There will be one
midterm. It is temporarily set to be
held on Thursday October 30, 2014 during the lecture time at 10:00 – 11:30 a.m.
Assignments will be given
regularly and should be handed in by each student individually. No group assignments
will be accepted. They are due in the assignment box on the 4th
floor of the CBY building. The assignments will be picked up from the
box at 4:00 p.m. on the due date. Late assignments will be penalized, 50 %
for the first late day. Assignments handed in more than 2 days late
will not count towards your mark.
Assignments will be graded and
returned promptly. Solutions will be
posted.
There will be
quizzes during tutorial periods throughout the term on an on-going basis.
The course will be graded as follows:
· Assignments
5%
· Quizzes 10%
· Midterm 25%
· Final exam 60%
The midterm and final exams
will be open textbook.
Class
attendance is mandatory. As per academic regulations, students who do not
attend 80% of the class (including lectures and tutorials) will not be allowed
to write the final examination.
All requirements of the
course (assignments, quizzes, midterm, final exam, attendance in lectures and
tutorials) must be fulfilled otherwise you may receive an INC as a final mark
(equivalent to an F).
The work that you hand in
should be your own. You are encouraged
to help one another or to seek out the professor or the TA for help with the assignments
if necessary, but direct copying of solutions from another student is not
acceptable. The assignments are given
for your benefit, to help you learn the course material. Take advantage of that. A copy of the University policy on academic
fraud is found in the following website:
