SOLVED PROBLEMS IN TRANSPORT PHENOMENA: MASS TRANSFER

Transport Phenomena is an umbrella term to describe the fundamental processes of momentum, energy, and mass transfer.

This unique compendium covers mass transfer, explaining clearly the detailed steps of problem-solving, namely formulation, simplification, and mathematical solution. Thus, students are able to grasp the methodology in problem-solving.

This useful reference text benefits upper undergraduate and graduate level students in the fields of chemical, environmental and mechanical engineering.
