Opis

With the dramatic advancement of computer technology, students in chemical engineering must have a firm understanding of complex transport phenomena analysis. Bringing together a wealth of professional and instructional experience, this graduate-level curriculum focuses on the current concepts of fluid mechanics, turbulent flow, and multiphase flow. It stresses a problem-solving approach that incorporates a reliance on the Computational Fluid Dymanics Code (CFD). The text presents one code at a time so that students are better able to understand the technique, and the book includes an appendix with problems and cases. Access to CTP code is provided and examples are available online.
