Class Objectives
/Class Outline
This course is aimed at students in the first half of a doctoral program who have already acquired basic knowledge of the transport phenomena of isothermal incompressible fluids. Using Excel and Python, we will perform numerical analysis of the transport phenomena of flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer, which are the basic studies of chemical engineering, and deepen our understanding of transport phenomena through comparison of numerical solutions and analytical solutions. 
Class Schedule 1st
