Bücher der Reihe Heat and Mass Transfer

To promote further the development of the aerodynamics, meet the challenge in the new century, summary the experience, cultivate the professional personnel and to serve better the cause of aeronautics and astronautics and the national economy, the present Series of Modern Aerodynamics is organized and published.

This book examines the issues on noble metal influence on gaseous combustion. The book focuses on the new data on combustion processes having practical applications and includes fire safety issues in the use of noble metals in hydrogen recombiners for NPP, as well as in catalytically stabilized (CS) combustion technology including stimulation of combustion of hydrogen-blended hydrocarbons, synthesis of carbon nanotubes, and determination of catalytic ignition limits in noble metal-hydrogen-hydrocarbon systems to meet the challenges of explosion safety.

This book highlights recent research advances in the area of turbulent flows from both industry and academia for applications in the area of Aerospace and Mechanical engineering. Contributions include modeling, simulations and experiments meant for researchers, professionals and students in the area.

This book offers a comprehensive account of the law and its relation to other laws and principles, such as the generalized conservation principle, variational formulation, Fermat's principle, Bejan's constructal law, entropy generation minimization, Bejan's method of intersecting asymptotes and equipartition principle.

Sets of equations for computer program in thermo dynamics and fluid dynamics usually consist of two types of formulations: a first one derived from the conservation laws for mass, energy and momentum, and a second one mathematically modelling transport processes like laminar or turbulent diffusion.

This book provides a compilation of important optical techniques applied to experiments in heat and mass transfer, multiphase flow and combustion.

Easily readable and exact, this book is concerned with the kinetic boundary condition for both the plane and curved vapor-liquid interfaces. It also devotes attention to the fluid dynamics boundary condition for Navier-Stokes (fluid dynamics) equations.

This book systematically presents recent developments for laminar forced convection and forced film condensation, both from pure vapor and vapor-gas mixture for variable properties. The book will prove a useful reference to researchers and graduate students.

This book provides an analysis of contemporary problems in combustion science, namely flame propagation, detonation and heterophaseous combustion based on the works of the author.

This reference covers the physical principles and experimental and theoretical work of Charge Injection Systems plus technology development past and present. It's a broad overview that draws from electrostatistics, fluid mechanics and engineering technology.

Micro-channels are the future for cooling all types of circuits. This book presents the first systematic exposition of the problem related to microfluid flow developing under conditions of intensive heat transfer and phase changing of working fluid.

Latent heat storage with phase change materials (PCM) has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of heat and cold storages and to reduce their size considerably. This book offers the ideal introduction to the field for researchers and students.

In this book, the fundamentals of chemical engineering are presented with respect to applications in micro system technology, microfluidics, and transport processes within microstructures.

A systematic control of mixture formation with modern high-pressure injection systems enables us to achieve considerable improvements of the combustion pr- ess in terms of reduced fuel consumption and engine-out raw emissions.

The utilization of mathematical models to numerically describe the performance of internal combustion engines is of great significance in the development of new and improved engines.

The book summarises the outcom of a priority research programme: 'Analysis, Modelling and Computation of Multiphase Flows'. The research comprises steady and unsteady multiphase flows in three frequently found reactor configurations, namely bubble columns without interiors, airlift loop reactors, and aerated stirred vessels.

In its second edition, this book reviews progress in the study of hydrodynamics and heat and mass transfer in laminar free convection, accelerating film boiling and condensation of Newtonian fluids, and accelerating film flow of non-Newtonian power-law fluids.

This book focuses on the application of classical combustion theory to ignition and flame propagation in solid-solid and gas-solid systems.

The homogenization of single phase gases or liquids with chemical reactive components by mixing belongs to one of the oldest basic operations applied in chemical engineering.
