Books

Convective Heat and Mass Transfer, Second Edition, is ideal for the graduate level study of convection heat and mass transfer, with coverage of well-established theory and practice, as well as trending topics, such as microchannel heat transfer and CFD. It is appropriate for both Mechanical and Chemical Engineering courses/modules. The text provides rigorous coverage of convective heat and mass transfer concepts, supported by detailed worked examples, a wide range of practical applications, and a wealth of exercises. A complete Solutions Manual and Figure Slides of the book’s diagrams for classroom projection.

• Presents a balance between mathematical rigor and applications-oriented methods. Covers mass transfer in a systematic manner alongside heat transfer
• Introduces the transport of micro- and nanoparticles, and nanofluids
• Devotes a chapter to mini and microchannels and the effects of miniaturization on flow and heat transfer phenomena.
• Covers convective transport of microparticles in gases (aerosol transport) and liquids (colloids and nanofluids), as well as nanofluids.
• Features more than fifty completely and clearly solved examples and over 300 end-of-chapter exercises, all with complete solutions.

Providing a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals and applications of flow and heat transfer in conventional and miniature systems, this fully enhanced and updated edition covers all the topics essential for graduate courses on two-phase flow, boiling, and condensation.

Beginning with a concise review of single-phase flow fundamentals and interfacial phenomena, detailed and clear discussion is  provided on a range of topics including two-phase hydrodynamics and flow regimes, mathematical modeling of gas-liquid two-phase flows, pool and flow boiling, flow and boiling in mini and microchannels, external and internal-flow condensation with and without noncondensables, condensation in small flow passages, and two-phase choked flow.

Numerous solved examples and end-of-chapter problems that include many common design problems likely to be encountered by students, make this an essential text for graduate students. With up-to-date detail on the most recent research trends and practical applications, it is also an ideal reference for professionals and researchers in mechanical, nuclear, and chemical engineering.
