Run Your Own Simulations

Adjust the parameters and see the engineering — and the visuals — respond in real time.

🌊

Fluid Flow (ChE 331)

Laminar vs turbulent — change velocity and pipe diameter, watch Re shift.

⚡

Thermodynamics (ChE 301–302)

Design a power cycle. Push temperatures — find the efficiency ceiling.

🔬

Reactor Design (ChE 321)

Tune temperature, catalyst, and residence time. Maximize conversion.

🌡️

Heat Exchanger (ChE 332)

Hot stream meets cold stream. Balance the duty.

🏭

Distillation (ChE 334)

Separate a mixture. See how reflux ratio and stages affect purity.

🛡️

Process Safety (ChE 456)

Overpressure in a vessel — size the relief valve correctly.
