Transport Phenomena

Course objective

To provide concepts of the fundamental mechanisms governing the transport of momentum, energy, and mass, with emphasis on the use of shell balance and equations of change, so that students can analyze, evaluate, and design transport processes in engineering applications through rigorous problem formulation and solution.
