Heat And Mass Transfer (PTT 205/4)

This comprehensive presentation of the whole field of heat and mass transfer makes the reader familar with the fundamentals and enables him to solve practical problems. The basic theory is developed systematically, and the solution methods to all important problems are covered in detail. Therefore, this book will be useful not only to students, but likewise to scientists and practising engineers. All areas of heat and mass transfer are dealt with. Many calculated examples in the text and numerous exercises and elaborate solutions will facilitate learning and understanding. For the second edition, changes apply to heat and mass transfer correlations based on theoretical results or experimental findings. They were adapted to the state-of -the-art. Some of the worked examples as well as the compilation were revised or updated.

This book, "Heat and Mass Transfer in Porous Media", presents a set of new developments in the field of basic and applied research work on the physical and chemical aspects of heat and mass transfer phenomena in a porous medium domain, as well as related material properties and their measurements. The book contents include both theoretical and experimental developments, providing a self-contained major reference that is appealing to both the scientists and the engineers. At the same time, these topics will encounter of a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines, such as chemical, civil, agricultural, mechanical engineering, etc. The book is divided in several chapters that intend to be a short monograph in which the authors summarize the current state of knowledge for benefit of professionals.
