CHEME 3720

Introduction to Process Dynamics and Control

2.0 credits · Undergraduate

Modeling and analysis of the dynamics of chemical processes, Laplace transforms, block diagrams, feedback control systems, and stability analysis.

Topics

Students apply mathematical analysis to develop models for chemical process systems.
Students complete all problem sets in groups of 2-3 people.
The first problem set is an open-ended assignment, which helps introduce basic concepts of control, including the identification of variables, parameters, inputs an outputs. Students are encouraged to select a system that is not a traditional chemical process.
