Learning outcomes
|
The aim of subject is application of knowledges in chemical kinetics, thermodynamics and hydrodynamics, heat and mass transmission to the process of designing and calculation of chemical reactors.
Student after graduation of subject is able to determine basic characteristics of reactive system, to design suitable conditions of exercise and parameters of reactors.
