Mathematical Methods In Chemical Engineering (CHBE-0201)

Fall 2025 · CHBE 0201 · Tufts University · 3 credits · Undergraduate

Solution of algebraic equations, ordinary and partial differential equations, and sets of equations. Linear independence; basis vectors and functions; eigenvalues, eigenvector and eigenfunctions; initial and boundary value problems; generalized Fourier series; Sturm-Louisville problems; Green's function. Application examples in: chemical reaction engineering, and heat conduction and mass diffusion in one, two, or three dimensions at steady state or in transient mode. Emphasis is placed on linear problems but nonlinear ones are also discussed. Recommendations: Graduate Engineering Student and knowledge of MATLAB, or permission of instructor.
