E-Module Mass & Energy Balance Practice Exercises

Abstract

The Mass & Energy Balance Practice Exercises e-module provides students with examples of mass and energy balance issues and solutions. This e-module focuses on the "Fundamentals of Material Balances" topic, which is covered in Chapter 2 of the Mass and Energy Balance Course of the Diploma in Engineering Process (Petrochemical) at Politeknik Kuching Sarawak. This e-module is also meant to be a textbook for students studying chemical engineering and related topics. This e-module provides practice questions and solutions. The detailed solution steps guide and teach students in a series of integrated calculations for problem-solving. This book serves as a teaching assistance for educators, particularly those in the Department of Petrochemical Engineering at Politeknik Kuching Sarawak, and can be used as a reference for students. There is enough information supplied in the text of the problem for the students to carry out the calculation themselves before they can compare their answer version to the answer in the text of the solution. This is a fantastic exercise for students to assess their comprehension depending on the number of accurate responses they receive. It is also a challenge for students to accurately solve the issues highlighted in the solution text. The answer text describes each step of computation, and the student must determine when and why specific values are generated.
