Interactive Computer Modules

The following Interactive Computer Modules (ICMs) are contained on the Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering CD-ROM. Internet Explorer users click on the ICM title to begin the installation. All users can access all of the Windows-based ICM installation files by clicking HERE or see the installation instructions HERE.

Older versions of some ICMs have been included on the CD-ROM and webstie - the old ICM's are DOS programs and the new versions are run in Windows. The main difference between the old and new versions of the ICMs is the graphical interface. The material reviewed and questions in a particular ICM are the same in both the old and new version. Note that the DOS ICM's will produce different performance numbers than the new ICM's, so be caureful when reporting performace numbers if you use the older DOS versions.
