The module focuses on the teaching of basic mathematical and numerical models for the calculation and analysis of interphase phenomena in various chemical and metallurgical processes. Based on this, idealized models are derived for selected applications and used for process analysis and optimization. The applications include:
Gas-solid
-
Heat and mass transfer at reactive single particles in laminar and turbulent flows
-
Heat and mass transfer in fixed bed processes and syntheses
-
Pore development and particle shape changes due to interphase phenomena
Liquid-liquid
Gas-liquid
-
Droplet evaporation
-
Gas-liquid interactions in melting baths
In seminars and practical trainings, the students develop simple numerical models and apply them to the analysis of interphase phenomena and for a first process optimization.
