No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1988–89 to 1994–95; the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Introduction to practical engineering methods, including standard computer packages, for specifying or selecting types of equipment commonly used in various process industries. Topics include: piping systems; control valves; pumps; compressors, fans and blowers; heat exchangers; tower contactors for one- and two-phase flow; mechanically agitated contactors, mixers, reactors; pressure vessels; materials of construction; special topics, as appropriate.
As printed in the 1991–92 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
