Hydrodynamics, Mass and Heat Transfer in Chemical Engineering [Paperback]

Hydrodynamics, Mass and Heat Transfer in Chemical Engineering contains a concise and systematic exposition of fundamental problems of hydrodynamics, heat and mass transfer, and physicochemical hydrodynamics, which constitute the theoretical basis of chemical engineering in science. Areas covered include: fluid flows; processes of chemical engineering; mass and heat transfer in plane channels, tubes and fluid films; problems of mass and heat transfer; the motion and mass exchange of power-law and viscoplastic fluids through tubes, channels, and films; and the basic concepts and properties of very specific technological media, namely foam systems.
Topics are arranged in increasing order of difficulty, with each section beginning with a brief physical and mathematical statement of the problem considered, followed by final results, usually given for the desired variables in the form of final relationships and tables.Fluid Flows in Films, Jets, Tubes and Boundary Layers. Hydrodynamic Equations and Boundary Conditions. Hydrodynamics of Thin Films. Laminar Flows in Tubes. Hydrodynamic Boundary Layer on a Flat Plate.
