CHEE 224  Transport Phenomena Fundamentals  Units: 3.00  
The theory and mathematical framework of transport phenomena are introduced. Mass, energy and momentum balances are developed using the integral and differential methods of analysis. The tools used to formulate and solve the problems include representation of physical entities in vector form, multivariable functions and vector operations in 2D and 3D. Specific topics of Chemical Engineering interest include moments of a force, work done by a force, moments of inertia, control surfaces and control volumes and fluid kinematics.

Course Learning Outcomes:

  1. Calculate centre of mass, moment of inertia and volumes using multiple integrals, to determine hydrostatic forces on surfaces.
  2. Analyze transport phenomena fundamentals (forces in space, moment of a force, work done by a force) and fluid kinematics (displacement, velocity and acceleration, motion along a curve)Define streamlines, streaklines and pathlines.
  3. Apply the integral relations for a control volume and the Reynolds transport theorem to analyze fluid motion.
  4. Analyze fluid motion using the differential analysis: Velocity and acceleration fields, linear and angular motion and deformation, differential form of the continuity equation (Cartesian and polar forms), stream function, potential function.
  5. Formulate equations for heat and momentum transport using partial derivatives, multivariable functions, differentials, the chain rule for multivariable functions, directional derivatives.
  6. Development of mathematical skills: (i) the mathematical formulation of engineering transport problems and corresponding analytical solution strategies(ii) Handling of differential operators in vector calculus and coordinate systems important for engineering applications.
