Transient problems in transport phenomena have a variety of applicationsranging from drug delivery systems in chemotherapy in bioengineering to heattransfer to surfaces in fluidized bed combustion FBC boilers in mechanicalengineering. However the attention given to transient problems isdisproportionate with its occurrence in the industry. Damped Wave Transport andRelaxation looks at transient problems in heat mass and momentum transferincluding nonFourier effects of conduction and relaxation nonFick effects ofmass diffusion and relaxation and nonNewtonian effects of viscous momentumtransfer and relaxation. The author also reviews applications to currentproblems of interest and uses worked examples and illustrations to describe themanifestations of using generalized transport equations. This book is intendedfor graduate students in transport phenomena and is an ideal reference sourcefor industrial engineers. Provides a connection with molecular phenomena Separate sections are devoted to heat mass and momentum transfer Includes exercises and examples of applications «
