Description

Intended for one-year transport phenomena (also called transport processes) and unit operations course. First semester covers fluid mechanics (also called momentum), heat and mass transfer; second semester covers unit operations. Revision of successful textbook for two-semester (junior/senior) course called transport phenomena (or processes) and with operations. Significant unit changes include the addition of a section on adsorption, chapter on membrane separation, and more complete coverage of fluid mechanics.
