Teaching “operability” in undergraduate chemical engineering design education

Teaching "operability" in undergraduate chemical engineering design education

This paper presents a proposal for increased emphasis on operability in the Chemical Engineering capstone design courses. Operability becomes a natural aspect of the process design course for a project that is properly defined with various scenarios and uncertainty. Key topics in operability are the operating window, flexibility, reliability, safety, efficiency, operation during transitions, dy...
