Modellbildung in der Chemischen Reaktionstechnik

What it is about

You will learn to describe and analyze reaction engineering processes and industrial reactors with mathematical models. The module combines fundamentals from thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, reaction engineering and catalysis with methods of data analysis, numerical analysis, multiscale modelling and statistics as well as MATLAB programming. In the end you will be able to develop models, solve them numerically and evaluate the effects of heat and mass transport on reactor design.

What you will be able to do

• analyze chemical processes mathematically
• develop models for reaction engineering cases
• understand and apply numerical methods
• evaluate the influence of heat and mass transport on reactor design
• perform simple parameter estimations and assess statistical significance
