Transport Phenomena in Newtonian Fluids - A Concise Primer (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This short primer provides a concise and tutorial-style introduction to transport phenomena in Newtonian fluids , in particular the transport of mass, energy and momentum. The reader will find detailed derivations of the transport equations for these phenomena, as well as selected analytical solutions to the transport equations in some simple geometries. After a brief introduction to the basic mathematics used in the text, Chapter 2, which deals with momentum transport, presents a derivation of the Navier-Stokes-Duhem equation describing the basic flow in a Newtonian fluid. Also provided at this stage are the derivations of the Bernoulli equation, the pressure equation and the wave equation for sound waves. The boundary layer, turbulent flow and flow separation are briefly reviewed. Chapter 3, which addresses energy transport caused by thermal conduction and convection, examines a derivation of the heat transport equation. Finally, Chapter 4, which focuses on mass transport caused by diffusion and convection, discusses a derivation of the mass transport equation.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

Selected by Choice magazine as an "Outstanding Academic Title" for 2014
"This small book ... condenses an amazing amount of information on transport phenomena, covering essentially the entire field, into a concise, useful format (as evidenced by its subtitle). ... the book is well written, direct, and to the point. It is a valuable resource for advanced students as well as anyone wishing an introduction or review of basic transport phenomena. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals/practitioners." (R. Darby, Choice, Vol. 51 (7), March, 2014)
