Process engineering design projects, risk reduction techniques, heat exchanger design, an introduction to materials science and material and energy balance software.
Topics-Risk Reduction (DH)More exploration of risk versus hazard. Introduce design tools of risk reduction techniques and inherent safety. Brief coverage of major safety laws in New Zealand.Course notes provided.-Heat Exchanger Design (IAG)Sizing and specification of heat exchangers, including shell-and-tube heat exchangers.-Introduction to Process Design PD (CJW)An introduction to the strategy of process design along with a design project.-Materials (MK)Introduction to the concepts and properties of engineering materials. This section will be lectured by Prof Milo Kral from Mechanical Engineering.-UNISIM (CJW)This is an introduction to industrial process simulation software packages UNISIM, which is an industry standard, particularly for the oil and gas industries. Instruction on the use of this package will be given, followed by hands-on practice in the computer lab.-Design Projects:Design Project(CJW): A project selected to enable students to use their knowledge from other courses in the context of process design.UNISIM Process Design (CJW): Computer aided design of processing plant using the Unisim simulator. Basic tuition on using the simulator will be given followed by application to a set design problem.
