Overview

One of the roles of an engineer is to design processes where fluid or particulate materials are transported at scale. A Biomedical Engineer may design an artificial heart to pump blood around the human body. A Chemical Engineering treat and deliver water from a reservoir to every household in Sydney. … For more content click the Read More button below. This course teaches the science and technology related to the handling and processing of fluids and particulate materials at scale. The course is structured as nine core modules: 1. Fundamental Concepts in Fluid Mechanics (including fluid properties and behaviours, and the rheology of fluids and semi-solid), Fluid Statics, 3. Fluid Dynamics, 4. Fluid Handling (including flow in pipes, pump and pumping), 5. Fluid Modelling (including differential analysis of fluid motion, dimensional analysis and similitude), 6. Particle Size and Size Distribution, 7. Particle Process and Processing (including classification, mixing, segregation and communition), 8. Particle Settling and 9. Packed Bed.
