Inhaltsangabe

This classic text on fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transport has been brought up to date in this second edition. The author has added a chapter on 'Boiling and Condensation' that expands and rounds out the book's comprehensive coverage on transport phenomena. These new topics are particularly important to current research in renewable energy resources involving technologies such as windmills and solar panels. This second edition of An Introduction to Transport Phenomena in Materials Engineering provides materials science and engineering students and professionals with a clear yet thorough introduction to these important concepts. It balances the explanation of the fundamentals governing fluid flow and the transport of heat and mass with common applications of these fundamentals to specific systems existing in materials engineering. Inside, you will discover: The use of familiar examples such as air and water to introduce the influences of properties and geometry on fluid flow. An organization with sections dealing separately with fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transport. This sequential structure allows the development of heat transport concepts to employ analogies of heat flow with fluid flow and the development of mass transport concepts to employ analogies with heat transport. Ample high-quality graphs and figures throughout. Key points presented in chapter summaries. End of chapter exercises and solutions to selected problems. An all new and improved comprehensive index.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

David R. Gaskell was born in Glasgow, Scotland and received B.Sc. degrees in metallurgy and technical chemistry from the University of Glasgow in 1962. From 1962 to 1964, he was employed as the Metallurgist with Laporte Chemical Ltd., a manufacturer of industrial chemicals, with two plants in England. He obtained his PhD from McMaster University in 1967, and from 1967 to 1982 he was a professor of metallurgy, materials science and geology at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1982 he went to Purdue, where he won five departmental teaching awards. He taught a variety of courses dealing with materials properties, structures and processing, and he is the author of two texts, one on the thermodynamics of materials, which is in its sixth edition, and this book on transport phenomena in materials engineering, which is now in its second edition. His research interests include chemical and extraction metallurgy, thermodynamics, kinetics, transport phenomena and materials processing.
