Coulson and Richardson's Chemical Engineering Volume 1 - Fluid Flow, Heat Transfer and Mass Transfer

This book provides an account of the fundamentals of chemical engineering and constitutes the definitive work on the subject for academics and practitioners. Supported by numerous worked examples and problems, clear explanations of theory and practical applications are provided throughout. Thus, the text is designed for students as well as being comprehensive in coverage. This volume covers the three main transport processes of interest to chemical engineers; Momentum transfer (fluid flow), Heat transfer, Mass transfer and the relationships between them.
