CHE 3210 - Chemical Engineering Phase Equilibria


Application of thermodynamics to chemical engineering problems, including problems in chemical equilibrium in homogeneous and heterogeneous systems, mixtures, and pure materials.

Requisites: ET 3200 and C or better in CHE 2010
Credit Hours: 3
Repeat/Retake Information: May be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
Lecture/Lab Hours: 2.0 lecture, 2.0 recitation
Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes:
  • Students will be able to utilize a cubic equation of state to calculate pressure-volume-temperature behavior.
  • Students will be able to determine thermodynamic properties and phase composition from thermodynamic diagrams.
  • Students will be able to apply the phase rule and explain the principles behind its derivation.
  • Students will be able to determine phase compositions, temperature and pressure at vapor-liquid and vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium.
  • Students will be able to determine if a system exhibits an azeotrope, and if so determine the temperature, pressure and composition of the azeotrope.
  • Students will be able to utilize partial molar properties to calculate solution properties.
  • Students will be able to calculate the heat of mixing.
