Textbook in PDF format

This textbook covers computational fluid dynamics simulation using Comsol Multiphysics software. This book is suitable for professors, instructors, and undergraduate and postgraduate students of chemical engineering. It will also be helpful to research scientists and practicing engineers. This book can also be used for longer duration computational courses in chemical engineering such as Chemical Engineering Mathematics, CFD for Chemical Engineers, Introduction to Softwares in Chemical Engineering, Computational Design Laboratory, Computer Applications in Chemical Engineering Laboratory, Numerical Methods, etc.
The book provides a step-by-step approach to solve the problems with snapshots that can be understood very easily. The book is inspired by the difficulties while introducing the use of Comsol within class hours. It addresses the need for a textbook that is user friendly and that, at the same time, addresses typical examples within the subjects covered in the chemical engineering curriculum. The aim of this volume, therefore, is to provide the use of Comsol Multiphysics software in chemical engineering applications so that students become familiar with the capabilities.
