CHEG 630 Advanced Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics
In this course, the principles, concepts, and laws of classical and statistical thermodynamics will be used for applications that require quantitative knowledge of thermodynamic properties from a molecular to a macroscopic level. Different models for phase equilibria calculations are presented in the form of equations of state and activity coefficient models for gases and liquids. An introduction to statistical mechanics is given, providing the link to molecular physics, intermolecular forces and macroscopic properties. Classical and molecular methods will be applied to high-pressure phase equilibria, interfacial properties, polymers and electrolyte solutions. In addition, advanced chemical and combined chemical/phase equilibria will be discussed.
