Numerical Methods with Chemical Engineering Applications van Kevin D. Dorfman and Prodromos Daoutidis is an English-language textbook focused on applications within chemical engineering. This book covers extensive numerical methods with practical examples from chemical technology.
The textbook combines theoretical foundations with the implementation of numerical methods in MATLAB. The emphasis is on accuracy, convergence, stability, and the approach to stiffness and ill-conditioning. The accompanying MATLAB codes are developed step by step and presented in an accessible way, including for readers with limited programming experience.
The content is suitable for students at the HBO and WO levels within chemical engineering programs and offers a practical approach to numerical methods with chemical applications. It includes numerous examples, exercises, and case studies that support the application of methods to chemical engineering problems.
The publication aligns with the Cambridge Series in Chemical Engineering and covers topics within industrial chemistry and technical chemistry, making it an ideal reference work for numerical methods in chemical engineering.
