SynopsisThe market leading transport phenomena text has been revised! Authors, Bird, Stewart and Lightfoot have revised Transport Phenomena to include deeper and more extensive coverage of heat transfer, enlarged discussion of dimensional analysis, a new chapter on flow of polymers, systematic discussions of convective momentum, energy, and mass transport, and transport in two-phase systems. If this is your first look at Transport Phenomena you'll quickly learn that its balanced introduction to the subject of transport phenomena is the foundation of its long-standing success. About the Revised 2nd Edition: Since the appearance of the second edition in 2002, the authors and numerous readers have found a number of errors--some major and some minor. In the Revised 2nd Edition the authors have endeavored to correct these errors. A new ISBN has been assigned to the Revised 2nd Edition in order to more easily identify the most correct version. For Bird's corrigenda, please click here and see Transport Phenomena in the "Books" section., Eine ausgewogene, seit langem bewährte Einführung in die Behandlung von Transportphänomenen, jetzt in der 2. überarbeiteten Auflage! Stoff-, Impuls- und Energietransport werden in drei verschiedenen Ma stäben behandelt: auf molekularem, mikroskopischem und makroskopischem Niveau. Im Vergleich zur ersten Auflage wurde die Präsentation des Stoffes verbessert und im Detail aktualisiert. Zahlreiche Referenzen erleichtern den Einstieg in die weiterführende Fachliteratur., The long-awaited revision of a classic! This new edition presents a balanced introduction to transport phenomena, which is the foundation of its long-standing success. Topics include mass transport, momentum transport and energy transport, which are presented at three different scales: molecular, microscopic and macroscopic., Transport Phenomena has been revised to include deeper and more extensive coverage of heat transfer, enlarged discussion of dimensional analysis, a new chapter on flow of polymers, systematic discussions of convective momentum, and energy.
