An Introduction to Mass and Heat Transfer Principles of Analysis and Design [Paperback]

This highly recommended book on transport phenomena shows readers how to develop mathematical representations (models) of physical phenomena. The key elements in model development involve assumptions about the physics, the application of basic physical principles, the exploration of the implications of the resulting model, and the evaluation of the degree to which the model mimics reality. This book also expose readers to the wide range of technologies where their skills may be applied.Part I

Appendix

Stanley Middleman is the author of An Introduction to Mass and Heat Transfer: Principles of Analysis and Design, published by Wiley.For a Full Course on Transport Phenomena A companion text entitled An Introduction to Fluid Dynamics, written by the same author, is also available. Together, these two texts represent complete, consistent coverage of transport phenomena. Both texts:

• Focus on the development of a mathematical model as a central part of the analysis and design of an engineering system or process
• Teach students how to develop accurate mathematical representations of physical phenomena
• Present many examples of expelÔ
