Description

The study of transport phenomena is an essential part of chemical engineering, as well as other disciplines concerned with material transformations such as biomedical engineering, microfluidics, reactor design and metallurgy. Material transformations require the motion of constituents relative to each other, the transfer of heat across materials and fluid flow. This lucid textbook introduces the student to the fundamentals and applications of transport phenomena in a single volume and explains how the outcomes of transformation processes depend on fluid flow…
