      Objectives of general skills

      • Imagine, design, implement and operate compounds, products and materials to specific properties and physical, chemical and biochemical solutions/processes leading to obtaining these materials by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical, safety and environmental).
        • Identify complex problems to be solved and formulate the specifications by integrating client needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
        • Based on modelling, design one or more products/processes/solutions addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
        • Implement a chosen solution/product in the form of a drawing, a schema, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model.
        • Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation (optimisation, quality, environment, safety/security).
      • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out missions of chemical engineering and materials science, using their expertise and adaptability.
        • Master and appropriately apply knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to the field of chemistry and materials science.
        • Analyse and model a problem/process/producing pathway by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
        • Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the field of chemistry and materials science.

      UE's Learning outcomes

      understand the basics of heat exchangers ; select the best solution for heat exchanger problems, taking into account the operating conditions as well as the technological and economical constraints ; solve the two basic heat exchanger problems : thermal design of a new heat exchanger, rating of an existing heat exchanger.
