Short description

Presenting an introduction to transport phenomena, this book covers topics such as mass transport, momentum transport and energy transport, which are presented at three different scales: molecular, microscopic and macroscopic.

Long description

Careful attention is paid to the presentation of the basic theory. Enhanced sections throughout text provide much firmer foundation than the first edition. Literature citations are given throughout for reference to additional material.
