ChE 3723 F2020 Lecture 37 HW 14 Discussion 12/3/2020

In this final lecture of the semester we look at the solution of HW 14 to illustrate the use of the method of lines for solving PDEs. There is also a comparison to the explicit method, the implicit…

ChE 3723 F2020 Lecture 36 Other Methods for Parabolic PDEs

We previously looked at using the Method of Lines to integrate the system of ordinary differential equations we obtain when we discretize a PDE in the spatial dimension. This enables us to use our RK…

ChE 3723 F2020 Lecture 34 Solving a Parabolic PDE in Excel with VBA 11/23/2020

Here we introduce the method of lines as a straight-forward extension of the Runge-Kutta methods developed in chapters 8 and 9 to the solution of partial differential equations. We also discuss the…

ChE/CEES Colloid Science Lecture 22 Foams

In this session we discuss the mechanisms of foam formation and foam stability, which we explain in terms of film elasticity and film drainage. We look at the Gibbs/Marangoni effect and Plateau…

ChE 3723 F2020 Lecture 32 Using dimensionless variables with a PDE

We continue our discussion of PDE solution methods with a discussion of the value of using dimensionless variables, and the pluses and minuses of this transformation of the PDE.

ChE/CEES Colloid Science Lecture 21 Dispersions Part 3

A continuation of our discussion of dispersions including a look at points of zero charge and how knowledge of the point of zero charge effects selection of a surfactant to use as a dispersant.

ChE/CEES Colloid Science Lecture 20 Dispersions Part 2

Here we continue our discussion of dispersions, specifically, solids dispersed in liquids. We distinguish between colloidal or Brownian dispersions, where particles stay suspended by Brownian motion,…

ChE 3723 F2020 Lecture 29 HW 12 Review and More Boundary Value Problems 11/11/2020

In this class session we go over the solutions to HW 12 and then look at the solution to the ODE in HW 12 after converting it into a BVP. The point to be made, here, is that the same Runge-Kutta…

ChE 3723 F2020 Lecture 26 Solving Boundary Value Problems

Here we look at using the same Runge-Kutta code we developed for solving 2nd order initial value problems (IVP) to solve a boundary value problem (BVP). The process is basically identical, but for…
