This course is taught jointly with Professor W. F. Schneider. The “GitHub” page can be found here.
The course will (roughly) follow “Introduction to Chemical Engineering Kinetics and Reactor Design” (2nd Ed.) by Charles Hill and Thatcher Root.
Some Mathematica examples:
How to find Mathematica software (video)
A Mathematica “primer”. (companion video)
Answer to first problem in HW1 using Mathematica
A “first example” of using Mathematica to solve for the time needed for a batch reaction with non-trivial kinetics (ex 8.2 in H&R) is given here. It is written to show how to use some features of Mathematica.
Below this “line” are course materials from CBE 40445, the reaction engineering course for the undergraduates that I taught in Fall 2020.
