Transport Phenomena, 2ed

The long-awaited revision of a classic! This new edition presents a balanced introduction to transport phenomena, which is the foundation of its long-standing success. Topics include mass transport, momentum transport and energy transport, which are presented at three different scales: molecular, microscopic and macroscopic. Special Features · Careful attention is paid to the presentation of the basic theory · Enhanced sections throughout text provide much firmer foundation than the first edition · Literature citations are given throughout for reference to additional material Table of Content Preface The Subject of Transport Phenomena Part I Momentum Transport · Viscosity and the Mechanisms of Momentum Transport · Shell Momentum Balances and Velocity Distributions in Laminar Flow · The Equations of Change for Isothermal Systems · Velocity Distributions with More than One Independent Variable · Velocity Distributions in Turbulent Flow · Interphase Transport in Isothermal Systems · Macroscopic Balances for Isothermal Flow Systems · Polymeric Liquids Part II Energy Transport · Thermal Conductivity and the Mechanisms of Energy Transport · Shell Energy Balances and Temperature Distributions in Solids and Laminar Flow · The Equations of Change for Nonisothermal Systems · Temperature Distributions with More than One Independent Variable · Temperature Distributions in Turbulent Flow · Interphase Transport in Noniosthermal Systems · Macroscopic Balances for Nonisothermal Systems · Energy Transport by Radiation Part III Mass Transport · Diffusivity and the Mechanisms of Mass Transport · Concentration Distributions in Solids and Laminar Flow · Equations of Change for Multicomponent Systems · Concentration Distributions with More than One Independent Variable · Concentration Distributions in Turbulent Flow · Interphase Transport in Nonisothermal Mixtures · Macroscopic Balances for Multicomponent Systems · Other Mechanisms for Mass Transport · Postface Appendix A: Vector and Tensor Notation Appendix B: Fluxes and the Equations of Change Appendix C: Mathematical Topics Appendix D: The Kinetic Theory of Gases Appendix E: Tables for Prediction of Transport Properties Appendix F: Constants and Conversion Factors Notation Author Index Subject Index
