| The goal | Knowledge attainment in the fields of petrochemical processes modeling and application of regression and chemical engineering correlations to experimental and literature data. | |||
| The outcome | On the basis of the knowledge gained in this course, students are capable of: modeling of simpler petrochemical separation and reaction processes, analyzing of experimental data using regression models and applying correlations from chemical engineering. | |||
| Contents | ||||
| Contents of lectures | Linear and multiple regression. Designing engineering experiments with one or several factors. Regression and data correlation examples: Estimation of Antoine equation parameters using multiple regression; Antoine equation parameters for various hydrocarbons; Correlation of thermodynamic and physical properties of n-propane; Correlation of binary activity coefficients using Margules equations for system benzene - n-heptane; Heat transfer correlations from dimensional analysis; Rate data analysis for a catalytic reforming reaction; Regression of rate data - Checking dependency among variables; Regression of heterogeneous catalytic rate data. Process modeling examples: Flash evaporation of various hydrocarbon mixtures; Three stage flash evaporator for recovering hexane from octane; Calculation of dew point, bubble point and the composition of the phases for non ideal mixtures; Fenske-Underwood-Gilliland correlations for separation towers; Rigorous distillation calculations for simpler separation towers. | |||
