Name: Numerical Primer for the Chemical Engineer, Second Edition
Brand: CRC Press

CRC Press

Designed as an introduction to numerical methods for students, this book combines mathematical correctness with numerical performance, and concentrates on numerical methods and problem solving. It applies actual numerical solution strategies to formulated process models to help identify and solve chemical engineering problems. Second edition comes with additional chapter on numerical integration and section on boundary value problems in the relevant chapter. Additional material on general modelling principles, mass/energy balances and separate section on DAE\u2019s is also included. Case study section has been extended with additional examples.\n > 1. The role of models in chemical engineering. 2 Errors in computer simulations. 3 Linear equations. 4 Elimination methods. 5 Iterative methods. 6 Nonlinear equations. 7 Ordinary differential equations. 8. Numerical integration. 9. Partial differential equations. 10. Data regression and curve fitting. 11. Optimization. 12. Basics of MAT.
