Presenting the basic mechanisms for transfer of heat, this book provides a deeper and more comprehensive view than existing titles intended for students on the subject. The text addresses the implications, limitations, and meanings of many aspects of heat transfer, connecting the subject to its real-world applications.
Mass transfer specifically refers to the relative motion of species in a mixture due to concentration gradients. In many technical applications, heat transfer processes occur simultaneously with mass transfer processes. The present book discusses these transfer mechanisms. The book offers professional chemical engineers and students reference on transport phenomena or separation processes unique to these complex systems.
