Table Of ContentMOMENTUM TRANSPORT. Viscosity and the Mechanism of Momentum Transport. Velocity Distributions in Laminar Flow. ENERGY TRANSPORT. Thermal Conductivity and the Mechanism of Energy Transport. Temperature Distributions in Solids and in Laminar Flow. MASS TRANSPORT. Diffusion and the Mechanisms of Mass Transport. Concentration Distributions in Solids and in Laminar Flow.
Synopsis"Transport Phenomena" has been revised to include deeper and more extensive coverage of heat transfer, enlarged discussion of dimensional analysis, a new chapter on flow of polymers, systematic discussions of convective momentum, and energy. Topics also include mass transport, momentum transport and energy transport, which are presented at three different scales: molecular, microscopic and macroscopic. If this is your first look at Transport Phenomena you'll quickly learn that its balanced introduction to the subject of transport phenomena is the foundation of its long-standing success., Treats momentum transport (viscous flow), energy transport (heat conduction, convection, and radiation), and mass transport (diffusion). All topics are organized around the ''equations of change'': the equations of motion, energy, and continuity.

  • Must have book for mechanical and chemical engineers.

    This book is revolutionary as it was the first to cover the analigous momentum, energy, and mass transport all at once. The equations of change have become standard now in many texts since it came out. This is the second time I bought it because I wore out the first copy! The topics are expertly taught in a readable manner.
