Engineering

This introduction to transport phenomena in materials engineering balances an explanation of the fundamentals governing fluid flow and the transport of heat and mass with common applications of these fundamentals to specific systems in materials engineering.

• introduces the influences of properties and geometry on fluid flow using familiar fluids such as air and water.
