Course Description
o
This course discusses the application of heat transfer and mass transfer to the design of equipment
employing heat exchange, mass exchange and simultaneous heat and mass exchange. Focus is on
aC s
vi y re
calculations in the design of heat exchangers, evaporators, packed columns and
humidification/dehumidification equipment. Students are expected to demonstrate their understanding of
heat and mass transfer by solving related problems.

The students are expected to identify the principles involved in different heat, mass and simultaneous heat
and mass transfer and to suggest appropriate equipment or equipment system to effect a given process or
operation.

Course Outcomes
Th
By the end of the course, the students will be able to:
1) Explain the principles and practice calculation methods of different heat and mass transfer
operations;
2) Apply the principles of material and energy balances to the analysis and design of simple operations
involved heat and mass transfer;
3) Perform simple calculations in the design of heat exchangers, evaporators, crystallizers, packed
columns and humidification / dehumidification equipment; and
4) Reflect on personal transformations along the TIP Graduates Attributes.

Procedures and Guidelines on Assessment Tasks
1. Problem sets corresponding to different topics might be given throughout the semester. Solutions
ed d
must be presented using short bond papers together with the printed problem set questionnaire,
ar stu
which must be physically submitted on or before the class on the specified due date. A soft copy in
a form of scanned document or photo must likewise be submitted thru email. No late submission
will be accepted.
sh is
2. All exams will be announced in advance. Papers will be provided to be used as solution sheets,
Th
hence, students are not allowed to bring any sheet of paper during quizzes unless otherwise
instructed. No special quiz will be given unless a valid excuse with acceptable proof is duly
presented. In case a student failed to attempt in taking a quiz without a valid excuse, a zero mark
will be automatically given for that particular quiz.
3. Short exercises may be given during lecture hours, or as homework, to supplement the problem
sets. A detailed instruction will be given for each exercise or homework.
Passing Requirements
To successfully pass this course, a student must achieve a final mark greater than or equal to 50.0%
