CHE 313 CASE STUDY ASSIGNMENT (Spring 2012)
Due: Friday May 25 2012 at 10:00 AM
Transport Phenomena Modeling (Optional)
This is a case study that you must select based on any topics related to the applications of Transport Phenomena. A list of acceptable topic is available so you can pick a topic from the list, the first person signing the name next to the topic will be responsible for it. You can also choose your own topic with approval from the instructor. You must read at least 2 references beside the reference given to you and turn in a copy of these two referencesin electronic form if possible. Your case study must be quantitative. There must be an equation or set of equations presented to describe the transport phenomena. The solutions to the equation(s) must also be presented and discussed.
Grading criteria:
Presentation of relevant information (20%)
- You must present your case study with a typed-written title page and an executive summary. The format for the title page is given in the opposite page. You need to assign a title to your case study.
- You must write an introduction (backgrounds materials) for the topic before you describe the transport model, its significances and applications. You must provide all the necessary information toward the solution of the model. You should include picture(s) to illustrate the description.
Model development (25%)
- Make a sketch of the system
- List all the assumptions, physical properties, and parameters.
- Derive the equations for your system in details.
Solution (25%)
- Solve the transport model analytically or by using any software package (You can use COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS, MATLAB, EXCEL...).
- Verify and present the results in graphical form. You should plot the dependent variable(s) versus the independent variable(s) with a realistic set of parameters. You are to plot the effect of perturbations (+/- 50%) of these parameters on the dependent variable(s).
Discussion of results (20%)
-Discuss the assumptions and the solutions and possible applications of the solution.
General completeness and neatness (10%)
- Your report should contain: (A sample report is available in the distribution folder in the CHE 313 course)
1. Title page.
2. Executive summary: This should succinctly summarize your problem, your results, and your conclusions. This summary should not exceed two typed written pages.
3. Transport Model: This should contain an introduction and detailed description of the model.
4. Model Solution: This should contain solution, and results in graphical form.
5. Discussion. This should contain your analysis of the results and the application.
6. Appendices: This should contain any relevant materials (EX: Derivation of equation(s), your computer program, computer output, copies of reference literatures,...)
Put your report and references in a folder created with your last name. Copy this folder into the Homework & Exam folder of CHE 313 by May 27 2011 at 11 AM.
