✦ Synopsis


A typical single course on dynamics and control is limited in the coverage that can be given to either topic. At Rensselaer, we have had separate one-semester courses on dynamic systems (process dynamics) and process control for a number of years. In this article, we discuss how MATLAB and SIMULINK are used to aid student learning in the two courses. A discussion of the topics covered and the educational delivery methods used is provided. We also discuss the Rensselaer initiative to integrate mathematics throughout the science and engineering curriculum.

In order to illustrate the use of CFD in providing an understanding of mixing processes, three examples, mixing in a pipe, homogenization with a static mixer and flow in a mixing vessel with a Rushton turbine, are discussed and compared with experimental results. Special attention is focussed on the
