BEE 5500
Heat and Mass Transfer in Biological Engineering

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2021-2022.

Focuses on understanding the principles of heat and mass transfer in the context of biological (biomedical/bioprocessing/bioenvironmental) systems. Emphasizes physical understanding of transport processes with application examples from plant, animal and human biology, the bioenvironment (soil/water/air), and industrial processing of food and biomaterials.  Students in BEE 5500 will have to develop a more complex computational model (for which analytical solution is difficult) using the software used in one of the homework. The goal of this activity will not be computation itself but using numerical computation to probe deeper into one or more aspects of diffusion, flow, generation/depletion, or geometry effect in a transport process.

When Offered Fall.
