Eligibility Criteria

Work experience

The candidates who have experience in the engineering field can apply to refresh their knowledge in this Advanced Transport Phenomena training.

Education

The candidates who have completed TP101x will be benefitted. The candidates who have not completed TP101x can also apply. But they must have prior knowledge of basic physics, calculus (derivative, integral, simple differential equations), and thermodynamics (concepts of the first and second law, properties of fluids, heat effects).

Certification qualifying details

To qualify for the certification, the candidates will have to score 60 % or more in the final grade. The candidates will have to pursue the course on the verified track. The final grade for this course will be calculated as a score percentage. 

What you will learn

Knowledge of engineering

The Advanced Transport Phenomena certification course is centered on engineering principles and hopes to cover every aspect of the science behind transport phenomena. These are some of the learning outcomes, this course hopes to cover-

  • The explanation of various heat and transfer-related problems in real-life will be covered under the Advanced Transport Phenomena certification syllabus.
  • The energy loss in a pipeline system and pipelines will be explained and calculated with the required mathematics for this course.
  • The introduction of grey and black bodies along with heat radiation will be given to the candidates.
  • The candidates will learn how to calculate radiation heat loss.
  • Microbalance will be introduced and an overview of diffusion and heat conduction will be included in the Advanced Transport Phenomena Certification course.
  • The curriculum also put an effort to make candidates learn to differentiate toothpaste and flow state of water.
  • The specific reasons for the difference between toothpaste and water will be taught.
  • The component distribution over the immiscible phase will be conveyed to the candidates.
  • The importance of component distribution over the immiscible phase and how it is applicable are also included for the candidate's understanding.
  • The candidates will also come to know about the definition of Newtonian and non-newtonian fluids.

Who it is for

The Advanced Transport Phenomena Online course is highly beneficial for the following type of candidates:

  • The candidates who have prior knowledge of mass and heat transport phenomena.
  • The completion of TP101x is recommended.
  • The candidates who have basic high school physics, calculus, and thermodynamics will be able to follow this course.

Admission Details

Following are the admission details given to guide the candidates for easy course accessibility-

Step 1: The eligible candidates can open their browser and go through this Advanced Transport Phenomena course URL-  https://www.edx.org/learn/engineering/delft-university-of-technology-advanced-transport-phenomena

Step 2: The candidates will have to register by filling up their authentic email and name.

Step 3: Then the candidates can “Sign in” with their registered account.

Step 4: The candidates will be automatically directed to the course page. The candidates can go through it and check the course content properly.

Step 5: On the course page, the candidates will have to click on the “Enrol” button. 

Step 6: Two ways of pursuing the course will appear. The audit track is free but without any certification, whereas the verified track requires Rs. 3,645 for the certification along with the course content.

Step 7: The candidates can apply either of the two modes and start their learning process.

The Syllabus

  • A short summary of microbalances in tubular reactors (plug flow), within parallel the introduction of the ‘microbalance’ for subjects that were not covered in TP101x Transport Phenomena, such as Fourier and Fick's law in different geometries (diffusion through membranes).

  • The momentum balance is a new subject and can be combined with mass and energy balance.
  • Introduction of the pressure drop by means of a force balance and the definition of the friction factor for tubes, bends, and other pipe connections. A link can be made to the mechanical energy balance.

  • Convective transport is much more powerful than diffusion. It is also much more complex and in most cases can only be treated using (dimensionless) correlations for the transfer coefficients.
  • Along with convective heat transfer, the analogy is introduced with mass transfer.

  • Mass transfer between two phases is introduced. Further, the partition coefficient between the two phases is explained.

  • Definition of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids and the derivation of the velocity profile between two parallel flat plates and in a tube.

  • Introduction of the radiation; heat transfer (Stefan-Boltzmann).
  • Illustration by its relevance in practice (radiation, emission, transparency, “grey” bodies).
