A Modern Course in Transport Phenomena
A Modern Course in Transport Phenomena by David C. Venerus is an advanced text published by Cambridge University Press on March 15, 2018. This edition spans 508 pages and is presented in English. The book offers a unique approach to studying transport phenomena by integrating concepts from chemical engineering and physics, utilizing nonequilibrium thermodynamics, and discussing kinetic theory. It covers traditional topics such as the diffusive and convective transport of momentum, energy, and mass, making it suitable for advanced courses and researchers in the field.
Readers will find a comprehensive exploration of transport phenomena, including novel applications related to complex fluids, transport at interfaces, and biological systems. The text features approximately 250 exercises with separate solutions to enhance understanding and reinforce key concepts, along with end-of-chapter summaries that aid in the retention of material. This book serves as a valuable resource for those looking to deepen their knowledge in areas such as mechanics, thermodynamics, and environmental science.
Official synopsis Publisher
This advanced text presents a unique approach to studying transport phenomena. Bringing together concepts from both chemical engineering and physics, it makes extensive use of nonequilibrium thermodynamics, discusses kinetic theory, and sets out the tools needed to describe the physics of interfaces and boundaries. More traditional topics such as diffusive and convective transport of momentum, energy and mass are also covered. This is an ideal text for advanced courses in transport phenomena, and for researchers looking to expand their knowledge of the subject. The book also includes: • Novel applications such as complex fluids, transport at interfaces and biological systems, • Approximately 250 exercises with solutions (included separately) designed to enhance understanding and reinforce key concepts, • End-of-chapter summaries.
