Description:

This text is designed for a streamlined two-term transport phenomena course. The first part of the book takes students through the balance equation in the context of diffusive transport. Each chapter adds a term to the balance equation, highlighting the effects of that addition on the physical behavior of the system and the underlying mathematical description. The second half of the book builds on the balance equation description of diffusive transport by introducing convective transport terms, focusing on partial rather than ordinary differential equations.
