2.51 Intermediate Heat and Mass Transfer

()
Prereq: (2.005 and 18.03) or permission of instructor
Units: 3-0-9
Lecture: TR11-12.30 (1-379)

Covers conduction (governing equations and boundary conditions, steady and unsteady heat transfer, resistance concept); laminar and turbulent convection (forced-convection and natural-convection boundary layers, external flows); radiation (blackbody and graybody exchange, spectral and solar radiation); coupled conduction, convection, radiation problems; synthesis of analytical, computational, and experimental techniques; and mass transfer at low rates, evaporation.

5.353 Macromolecular Prodrugs

(, ) ; partial term
Prereq: None. Coreq: 5.12 and 5.352
Units: 1-2-1
Safety lecture mandatory. MW sections on 9/4 at 1 pm. TR sections on 9/5 at 1 pm. See course for the link. Meets 11/6 to 12/10. Lecture: TR12 (4-231) Lab: MW1-5 (12-5170B) or TR1-5 (12-5170B)

Students carry out an experiment that builds skills in how to rationally design macromolecules for drug delivery based on fundamental principles of physical organic chemistry. Begins with conjugation of a drug molecule to a polymerizable group through a cleavable linker to generate a prodrug monomer. Continues with polymerization of monomer to produce macromolecular (i.e., polymer) prodrug; monomer and polymer prodrugs are fully characterized. Rate of drug release is measured and correlated to the size of the macromolecule as well as the structure of the cleavable linker. Satisfies 4 units of Institute Laboratory credit.

5.70[J] Statistical Thermodynamics

()
(Same subject as 10.546[J])
Prereq: 5.601 or permission of instructor
Units: 3-0-9
Lecture: TR9.30-11 (4-159) +final

Develops classical equilibrium statistical mechanical concepts for application to chemical physics problems. Basic concepts of ensemble theory formulated on the basis of thermodynamic fluctuations. Examples of applications include Ising models, lattice models of binding, ionic and non-ionic solutions, liquid theory, polymer and protein conformations, phase transition, and pattern formation. Introduces computational techniques with examples of liquid and polymer simulations.
