BEE 3500 - Heat and Mass Transfer in Biological Engineering

Fall. 4 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite or corequisite: MATH 2930 and fluid mechanics course.

A. Datta.

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 and sample reactions with application examples from plant, animal and human biology, the bioenvironment (soil/water/air), and industrial processing of food and biomaterials.

Outcome 1: Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.

Outcome 2: Identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.

Outcome 3: Integrate modern biology with engineering principles.
