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
