Description

Solution strategies for material and energy balance problems. Material Balances: Component, elemental and differential material balances. Problems involving bypass, recycle, purge and chemical reaction. Energy Balances: Thermodynamic background: first law; general equation for open and closed systems; shaft work and enthalpy; reference states. Application of energy balances: enthalpy data including steam tables and psychometric charts; heat capacity data; phase change; mixing; heat of solution; enthalpy-concentration diagrams; heats of formation, combustion and reaction. Integrated material and energy balance problems.
