Metallurgical or Materials Engineers are often restricting

themselvesonlytoproblemsrelatedtomaterials. However,ina
plant environment they should have sufficient expertise in
understanding the operation and control of processes, trouble
shooting,processmodificationsandprocessdesign.Understanding
offluidflow,heattransferandmasstransferisthefirststeptowards
such an expertise. In this course, some of the common
engineering calculations needed in a plant will be dealt in a
quantitativemannerthroughspeciallydesignedtutorialsessions.
Hence, this course will benefit any engineer who deals with
processes which involves fluid flow, heat transfer and mass
transfer.
