ChE 350 Process Heat Transfer
Course
Description:
The aim of this course is for you
to gain the competence, confidence, and character to solve a research
problem. By the end of the course, you will be able to:
 |
solve the most essential
“standard problems”. Heat transfer theory is a broad and mathematical
subject. We will focus on the important, well-studied, idealized problems
listed in the Topics section of this syllabus. |
|
apply techniques from the
standard problems to processes and devices. You will examine process
heat exchangers, plus everyday applications of heat transfer. |
IMPORTANT: This
course is designed for Independent Learning with no fixed daily time schedule or
meeting location. But it does run with scheduled start and due dates
according to a fixed Course Schedule. Individual class lectures are provided
by On-Demand Streaming Video and supported instructional activities that includes:
|
weekly quizzes
