Description

This volume is organized to highlight the parallels and the differences between the transport phenomena. It facilitates comprehension and retention of basic momentum, heat, mass and charge transport processes and properties and features a balance equation format based on systematic addition and analysis of each term in the balance equation. There are more than 1300 equations, and end-of-chapter problems are provided to reinforce important text material.
