Thermal Process Engineering and Equilibrium Thermodynamics

Thermische Prozesse und Gleichgewichtsthermodynamik

6 LPWiSeENAuslaufmodul

Voraussetzungen

Empfohlen, im Wortlaut

Strongly recommended: • Knowledge in mathematics • Physics, thermodynamics • Fundamentals in thermal process engineering

Inhalte

• pvt behaviour of real fluids • Characterization of mixtures • State laws (virial equations, cubic state laws, generalized state laws) • Activity coefficient models (Wilson, NRTL, UNIQUAC …) • Steam/liquid, liquid/liquid, and solid liquid equilibriums • Thermal separation: absorption

Lernziele

The module provides knowledge about equilibrium thermodynamics and its important technical applications. Based on the fundamentals in thermodynamics of mixtures, the student will learn how to calculate phase equilibria of real multicomponent systems. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to calculate equilibrium processes as absorption and extraction. The apparatuses for this separation processes can be dimensioned.
