Features: Based on courses such as Advanced Mathematics for Engineering, Computer Fundamentals, Physical Chemistry, and Chemical Engineering Principles, this book primarily introduces mathematical problems encountered in chemical engineering processes. The book is divided into eight chapters, with the first chapter being an introduction. The remaining seven chapters cover commonly used methods in chemical engineering calculations, including: error analysis, numerical solutions to nonlinear equations, solutions to systems of linear algebraic equations, polynomial interpolation of functions, polynomial approximation of functions, numerical differentiation and integration, and numerical solutions to ordinary differential equations. The content is concise and presented in an easy-to-understand manner, making it suitable for self-study. To enhance practice, the book provides only the theoretical basis and calculation steps for the discussed computational methods, omitting corresponding computer programs and flowcharts, and includes exercises at the end of each chapter. This book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in chemical engineering, as well as engineering professionals for reference.
