A step-by-step guide for students (and faculty) on the use of Aspen in teaching thermodynamics
* Easily-accessible modern computational techniques opening up new vistas in teaching thermodynamics
A range of applications of Aspen Plus in the prediction and calculation of thermodynamic properties and phase behavior using the state-of-the art methods
* Encourages students to develop engineering insight by doing repetitive calculations with changes in parameters and/or models
* Calculations and application examples in a step-by-step manner designed for out-of-classroom self study
* Makes it possible to easily integrate Aspen Plus into thermodynamics courses without using in-class time
* Stresses the application of thermodynamics to real problems
