Product Description

Provides a unified treatment of momentum transfer (fluid mechanics), heat transfer and mass transfer. The treatment of the three areas of transport phenomena is done sequentially. The subjects of momentum, heat, and mass transfer are introduced, in that order, and appropriate analysis tools are developed.

From the Back Cover
A TRUSTED CLASSIC, NOW UPDATED WITH MODERN APPLICATIONS

For more than three decades, FUNDAMENTALS OF MOMENTUM, HEAT, AND MASS TRANSFER has set the standard in the field with its consistent, clearly written, unified approach to transfer processes.

Building on the strengths of previous editions, the Fourth Edition of this classic text is updated with applications to contemporary technologies, such as materials processing, electronic chip cooling, biochemical engineering, and more. Readers will develop a sound understanding of transfer phenomena, build a set of valuable analysis skiss, and apply basic principles to a wide variety of modern problems and examples.

Feature of the Fourth Edition

  • New! Contemporary subject matter.
  • New! More homework exercises and example problems that deal with current technologies.
  • New! Revised coverage pf mass transfer.
  • Consistent approach to transport processes, highlighting similarities among different modes.
  • Easy–to–understand descriptions of basic principles.
  • A clear methodology for solving fundamentally based problems.
  • Extensive table of physical properties of solids, liquids, and gases.

The better way to understand transport phenomena4
I have been using this book for a long time.The second edition is much better that the first one.
In this book transport phenomena is described following the Lagrangian Method, using control volumens.
I considerer that a subject quite difficult to understand like transport phenomena could be easier using this book.
