Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the subject is to create a complex concept on special methods used in the characterization of membrane systems and non-Newtonian fluids.
After this course, the student is able to find his bearings in the flow characteristics of non-newtonian fluids. He is also able to interpret measured data on the membrane systems without and with electric field. He is qualified to select a polymeric or ceramic membrane for the application given.
