Transport Phenomena, second edition, written by W. J. Beek, K. M. K. Muttzall and J. W. van Heuven, is a textbook aimed at the fundamental principles of transport phenomena such as momentum, heat and mass. This book is intended for chemical and process engineers who want to deepen their knowledge of these processes.
Description
This textbook systematically covers the transport phenomena of momentum, heat and mass, with a clear introduction to physical transport analysis, including units, dimensional analysis and conservation laws. The topics covered include both fluid flow and heat and mass transfer, explaining similarities and differences. The book contains theoretical and semi-empirical equations, clear practical data, worked examples, and an extensive exercises chapter with answers.
