Practica in Particle Technology
Praktikum in Partikel - Technologie
Last Updated: 2026-02-05 15:29:12
Abstract
Practical training stressing the fundamentals in processing and highlighting experiments focusing on particle engineering science and applications. Students attend and give written reports on these experiments and answer questions on them. Familiarize the students with particle equipment and processes.
Objective
The goal of the class is to provide hands-on experiences in particle science and engineering. Emphasis is placed on laboratory safety, systematic experimentation, deep understanding of the underlying concepts, validation and comparison with existing data from the literature.
Content
The class is made by 3-4 experiments (filtration, sieving, droplet evaporation in fluid flow, CFD design or flame reactor) that are selected depending on equipment availability. Students have to prepare and execute such experiments and complete a detailed written report on which they would be examined on safe running of laboratories and for critical evaluation of their data along with the corresponding literature as it becomes available.
