Description
Basic Principles And Calculations In Chemical Engineering By David M. H. 6th Edition
Thoroughly revised and updated, the sixth edition:
- Presents a consistent sound strategy for solving material balance and energy balance problems.
- Incorporates sections on problem-solving as well as methods of solving problems with the help of computer software.
- Provides a consistent algebraic approach to the formulation of problems that is carried out in all subsequent chapters.
- Shortens and simplifies coverage of energy balances.
- Features new learning aids, including discussion-questions that require collection of information not found in the main text, a summary of key concepts, and lists of page-referenced key words.
The accompanying CD-ROM contains:
- FORTRAN programs that solve linear and nonlinear equations; retrieve the properties of water and steam and of air-water mixtures; calculate the vapour pressures of pure substances and calculate enthalpy changes from heat capacity equations.
- Supplementary Problems containing numerous pictures of the equipments referred in the worked out problems.
- POLYMATH, a self-documented and widely used software that runs on a PC, and which can solve linear and nonlinear regression problems, and carry out matrix operations.
- A database with retrievable physical properties of 700 compounds.
