Numerical Methods Applied to Chemical Engineering: Course Description
In 'Numerical Methods Applied to Chemical Engineering,' graduate students learn about various problem-solving techniques with mathematical and computational methods in chemical engineering. The online OpenCourseWare teaches students about numerical methods and how to use it to solve problems in various substances, such as molecular stimulation, heat and mass transfer, chemical reaction engineering and fluid mechanics. Some of the lecture topics include solution of nonlinear algebraic equations, numerical linear algebra, function space, solution of partial differential equations, optimization and ordinary differential equations. The course demonstrates these numerical methods within the subject of chemical engineering problems. Students should be familiar with structured programming and have previous experience using MATLAB in order to understand the examples provided in the course. The MIT on-campus course was taught by Professor William Green, Jr. in 2006 as a lecture class.
This OpenCourseWare includes lecture notes, sample exams, assignments with solutions and MATLAB tools. If you are interested in taking this free course, visit the numerical methods in chemical engineering course page.
