Project Deliverables

Teams (2-3 students of the same tutorial batch) need to work on the following
components for their chosen system
 Understanding the key problem(s) related to the topic through review of relevant
literature (10 pts)
 Where can modelling/simulation help? It is expected that a majority of these
principles are related to or covered in Chemical Engineering curriculum. Pose a
modelling problem for this system that can be tackled using a modelling and/or
simulation tool discussed in the class. The modelling problem need not cover all
aspects of the problem and may focus on a particular aspect of the problem.
However, the selected problem should not be too trivial that it does not require a
significant effort, e.g., single-effect evaporator model for desalination of sea
water. (20 pts)
Project Deliverables

 Simplification of process model to get an analytical solution (by derivation). (10 pts)
 Extension/generalization of the above model to cases requiring numerical simulation.
Develop (program) and run a simulation program for the problem definition.
OR
Perform a process simulation for the problem definition using a simulation package (e.g.,
ASPEN) (30 pts)
 Analysis of results and conclusions. How did modelling and simulation help in this
problem. Discuss advantages and shortcomings of the modelling/simulation approach
and provide an outlook for the future work. (20 pts)
 Two presentations and regular reporting to TAs. More on this during first tutorial class,
alongwith creation of teams. (10 pts)
Thanks and Welcome!
