Modelling and Simulation

This document provides information on the Chemical Engineering course "Modelling and Simulation" (CH403). The 3 credit course introduces fundamentals of process modeling and simulation, including mass, energy, and momentum balances. It covers modeling of equipment like reactors, distillation columns, and heat exchangers in steady state and dynamic simulation. The course also includes modeling complex industrial systems and the use of commercial simulators and artificial intelligence methods. Recommended textbooks are listed for reference.
