Aim: To enable the participants' use of numerical methods in the solution of differential equation models typical of chemical engineering.
Contents: Solution of ordinary and partial differential equation models discribing mass, energy and momentum transport and reaction in chemical engineering systems. Approximation by the method of weighted residuals. Lagrange interpolation, Gaussian quadrature and collocation based on orthogonal polynomials. Numerical solution of discretized problems. Eigenvalue problems ind transport processes. Coupled ordinary differential equations. Integration of stiff systems. Examples are used extensively and form the basis of the course.
