Introduction to Chemical Engineering Analysis Using Mathematica, Second Edition reviews the processes and designs used to manufacture, use, and dispose of chemical products using Mathematica, one of the most powerful mathematical software tools available for symbolic, numerical, and graphical computing. Analysis and computation are explained simultaneously. The book covers the core concepts of chemical engineering, ranging from the conservation of mass and energy to chemical kinetics. The text also shows how to use the latest version of Mathematica, from the basics of writing a few lines of code through developing entire analysis programs. This second edition has been fully revised and updated, and includes analyses of the conservation of energy, whereas the first edition focused on the conservation of mass and ordinary differential equations. - Offers a fully revised and updated new edition, extended with conservation of energy - Covers a large number of topics in chemical engineering analysis, particularly for applications to reaction systems - Includes many detailed examples - Contains updated and new worked problems at the end of the book - Written by a prominent scientist in the field

This book presents a systematic description and case studies of chemical engineering modelling and simulation based on the MATLAB/FEMLAB tools, in support of selected topics in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes that require numerical solution of complex balance equations (ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, nonlinear equations, integro-differential equations). These systems arise naturally in analysis of transport phenomena, process systems, chemical reactions and chemical thermodynamics, and particle rate processes. Templates are given for modelling both state-of-the-art research topics (e.g. microfluidic networks, film drying, multiphase flow, population balance equations) and case studies of commonplace design calculations -- mixed phase reactor design, heat transfer, flowsheet analysis of unit operations, flash distillations, etc. The great strength of this book is that it makes modelling and simulating in the MATLAB/FEMLAB environment approachable to both the novice and the expert modeller.

Introductory Elements of Analysis and Design in Chemical Engineering introduces readers to how chemical engineers think. It explains the application of analytical methods to phenomena important in chemical engineering and teaches analytical skills in the context of engineering design. A principle goal is to help readers reinforce their understanding of mathematics (especially calculus) and science as they are introduced to engineering thinking. Key Features: • Emphasizes basic principles, methods, and problem solving at an elementary level. • Presents concepts in calculus, chemistry, and physics and methods of analysis on the basis of experiment and observation. • Connects experimental results to mathematical representations. • Provides numerous illustrative examples and builds on them to introduce processing and process flow diagrams and to place chemical engineering in an historical context. • Includes problems at the end of each chapter. Aimed at readers beginning their studies in chemical engineering, this textbook offers an approachable introduction to the principles of analysis and design in chemical engineering to help readers learn to think quantitatively and with a foundation of chemical engineering concepts.

The goal of this text is to introduce a general problem-solving approach for the beginning engineering student. Thus, Introduction to Analysis focuses on how to solve (any) kind of engineering analytical problem in a logical and systematic way. The book helps to prepare the students for such analytically oriented courses as statics, strength of materials, electrical circuits, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, etc.

Looks at challenges for the future, including the broader challenge of extending design to include creating new value for a company, and a discussion of how emerging technologies, particularly increased computer speeds, may impact future design.
