Course detail
Computer-Aided Design and Simulations
FSI-9SVC Acad. year: 2026/2027 Both semester
The postgraduate students will get acquainted with process simulations and computer-aided design of processes and equipment. The course includes classification of mathematical modelling approaches for systems with mass and heat transfer, fluid flow, and chemical reactions. The students will enhance their knowledge of balance computations and simulations of complex systems including multiphase, reactive, or transient processes. Furthermore, attention will be paid to numerical methods for the solution of systems of equations. Optimisation techniques for process systems will also be discussed together with error propagation and regression analysis.

Graduate-level knowledge of mathematics and physics.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Each student will develop a model of a process or a simulation model related to their doctoral thesis. The examination can only take place after the student submits a written report describing the developed model.
Attendance at lectures is recommended. Absences are compensated by self-study of the literature specified by the lecturer or, if needed, by pre-arranged consultations at which the model developed by the student is discussed.
