The book "Analysis of Transport Phenomena" by William M. Deen, published by Oxford University Press, is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of transport phenomena. The book is divided into 15 chapters and several appendices, covering a wide range of topics in heat and mass transfer, fluid mechanics, and related fields.
Key topics include:
- **Diffusive Fluxes and Material Properties**: Discusses basic constitutive equations, diffusivities, and molecular interpretations.
- **Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer**: Explains conservation equations, heat transfer at interfaces, and molecular views of species conservation.
- **Formulation and Approximation**: Introduces one-dimensional examples, scaling, and modeling considerations.
- **Solution Methods Based on Scaling Concepts**: Focuses on similarity methods and perturbation analysis.
- **Solution Methods for Linear Problems**: Covers properties of linear boundary-value problems, Fourier transforms, and FFT solutions.
- **Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics**: Discusses conservation of momentum, stress, and fluid kinematics.
- **Unidirectional and Nearly Unidirectional Flow**: Explores steady and time-dependent flow, including limitations of exact solutions.
- **Creeping Flow**: Analyzes low Reynolds number flow, stream-function solutions, and particles in suspensions.
- **Laminar Flow at High Reynolds Number**: Covers irrotational flow, boundary layers, and internal boundary layers.
- **Forced-Convection Heat and Mass Transfer**: Discusses Péclet, Nusselt, and Sherwood numbers, and Taylor dispersion.
- **Transport in Buoyancy-Driven Flow**: Introduces the Boussinesq approximation and dimensional analysis.
- **Transport in Turbulent Flow**: Explains turbulence basics, time-smoothed equations, and eddy diffusivity models.
- **Simultaneous Energy and Mass Transfer and Multicomponent Systems**: Covers coupled fluxes, Stefan–Maxwell equations, and generalized diffusion.
- **Transport in Electrolyte Solutions**: Discusses macroscopic problems, equilibrium double layers, and electrorheological phenomena.
The book also includes appendices on vectors and tensors, ordinary differential equations, and special functions, providing a solid foundation for understanding the mathematical and physical principles underlying transport phenomena.The book "Analysis of Transport Phenomena" by William M.
