The subject of transport phenomena has long been thoroughly and
expertly addressed on the graduate and theoretical levels. Now,
Transport Phenomena and Unit Operations: A Combined Approach
endeavors not only to introduce the fundamentals of the discipline
to a broader, undergraduate-level audience but also to apply itself
to the concerns of practicing engineers as they design, analyze,
and construct industrial equipment.
Richard Griskey's innovative text combines the often separated but
intimately related disciplines of transport phenomena and unit
operations into one cohesive treatment. While the latter was an
academic precursor to the former, undergraduate students are often
exposed to one at the expense of the other. Transport Phenomena and
Unit Operations bridges the gap between theory and practice, with a
focus on advancing the concept of the engineer as practitioner.
Chapters in this comprehensive volume include:
* Transport Processes and Coefficients
* Frictional Flow in Conduits
* Free and Forced Convective Heat Transfer
* Heat Exchangers
* Mass Transfer; Molecular Diffusion
* Equilibrium Staged Operations
* Mechanical Separations
Each chapter contains a set of comprehensive problem sets with
real-world quantitative data, affording students the opportunity to
test their knowledge in practical situations. Transport Phenomena
and Unit Operations is an ideal text for undergraduate engineering
students as well as for engineering professionals.
