Modeling in Chemical Engineering

Models underlying the use of similarity considerations, dimensionless numbers, and dimensional analysis in chemical engineering are discussed. Special attention is given to the many levels at which models and ceteris paribus conditions play a role and to the modeling of initial and boundary conditions. It is shown that both the laws or dimensionless number correlations and the systems to which ...

Usability in Chemical Engineering

Usability can be defined as a measure of the ease with which a system can be learned or used, its safety, effectiveness and efficiency, and the attitudes of its users towards it. While usability has gained popularity in IT and has seen some applications in product development, where it brings strong advantages, industry by far does not exploit the full potential of usability. In the process ind...
