CHEG 711 Microfluidics and its Applications in Chemical Engineering
This course introduces the fundamental principles of microfluidics and microscale transport phenomena. Emphasis is placed on fluid dynamics at the microscale, including mass, heat, and momentum transport, and on how miniaturization enhances performance and enables high-throughput operation through numbering-up strategies. Relevant applications in reactions, separations, and environmental/biological applications are discussed. Students learn to analyze transport processes in microfluidic systems, understand microscale scaling effects, evaluate microfluidic device design, and apply CFD simulations.
