I will finally give my lecture to chemical engineering students today

I was originally scheduled to give this lecture on September 30, but it had to be changed 4 times on account of j--- d--- .  Anyway, this lecture consists of 3 parts:

1. Introduction to the literature of chemical engineering and chemistry
2. Scifinder Scholar and Chemical Abstracts
3. Scopus and other database relevent to chemical engineers

The students will then be given an assignment where they will have to use Scifinder Scholar or Scopus to answer one of the following questions:

• Liquid hold-up in packed columns (or towers) for any of the following packing types: Jaeger rings, tri-packs, Novalox saddles, pall rings


• Heat transfer coefficients for a flat plate exchanger

• A model for particle elutriation from a fluidized bed of particles

• Model for rotary kiln drier (dryer)
