Exams MT1: March 30 th, 2018 , Friday, 13 :40- 15 : MT2: May 4th, 2018 , Friday, 13 :40- 15 : Exams may be a combination of open/closed text and notes (homework solutions not allowed in any case). Makeups will be given only for valid, documented medical emergencies and will be challenging. Grading and Attendance Policies Midterms: 25 + 25 = 50%, Final: 25 %, Homework and Project: 1 5 %, Attendance: 2 %, Quizzes+ Active sessions: 8 % Graded quizzes may be given. They will be announced a few days in advance. A total score above 85 is guaranteed an AA. The rest of the letter grades depends on the class distribution of total scores (i.e. ‘the curve’) and your individual performance. Signing the attendance sheet on absentees’ behalf or coercing others to do so is a violation of academic policies, will be considered cheating, and strongly penalized. Also note that your final attendance score depends not only on your presence, but also on whether you are paying attention and behaving properly so that your classmates and instructors are not distracted. Homework rules Form groups of at most three during the first week and inform your TA. Collaboration between groups is permitted but each group should solve and write down the answers independently. Copy-paste of solutions from another group or resource will be considered cheating and strongly penalized. 10 points will be deducted per late day.
Course Objectives Upon successful completion of this course, you are expected to be capable of the following: Apply conservations of chemical species, total mass, momentum, and energy to formulate real world problems pertinent to chemical engineering in mathematical form Write microscopic and macroscopic equations in dimensionless form; interpret physical significance of the terms and dimensionless numbers appearing in these equations Demonstrate the ability to obtain analytical and/or numerical solutions of first- and second- order differential equations Demonstrate the ability to solve linear partial differential equations by analytical and/or numerical methods
