Summary

"Heat Conduction and Mass Diffusion provides a comprehensive treatment of heat and mass transfer at an advanced level - covering many of the important mass transfer mechanisms in wide use. Moreover, the basic mechanisms of species transport and many resulting processes are developed." "The educational advantage to this approach is that this material provides a deep, broad, and useful view of the subject matter. In addition, the book offers 374 problems that grade from very simple to the most complicated mechanisms covered by the formulations. Thus, instructors have many choices among the mechanisms to be demonstrated - enabling them to fit the level of the students to the degree of difficulty of the material."--Jacket.
