About the Book: This book is aimed at graduate students as well as scholars intending to take up multiphase flow/heat transfer as a field of research. The field of phase change from vapour to liquid and vice versa is complex and still developing even after a century of research. This often makes a beginner in the area overwhelmed. The purpose of this book is to introduce the subject in a simple and scientific way. The physics of the processes in boiling, condensation and cavitation are stressed upon in the text. The book also introduces some unique aspects such as phase change equipment and newer developments such as numerical modelling as well as mini and microchannel phase change. Contents 1. Introduction to Two Phase Flow—Flow Patterns and Maps 2. Two Phase Flow—Pressure Drop and Flow Friction 3. Thermodynamics of Phase Change 4. Nucleation and Bubble Dynamics 5. Cavitation 6 Types of Boiling—The Pool Boiling Curve 7. Heat Transfer Mechanisms and Correlations in Nucleate Pool Boiling 8. Pool Boiling Crisis, Critical Heat Flux and Film Boiling 9. Flow Boiling Heat Transfer 10. Flow Boiling Crisis and Post Dryout Heat Transfer 11. Condensation: Nusselt Theory and External Condensation 12. In-Tube and Dropwise Condensation 13. Boiling and Condensation of Mixtures 14. Numerical Modelling of Boiling 15. Equipment for Boiling, Evaporation and Condensation 16. Boiling in Mini and Micro Channels

About the Book: Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer is an introductory text elaborating the interface between Heat Transfer and subjects like Thermodynamics or Fluid Mechanics presenting the scientific basis of the equations and their physical explanations in a lucid way. The basic theories such as the Boundary Layer Theory and theories related to bubble growth during phase change have been explained in detail. In two-phase heat transfer, the deviations from standard theories such as the Nusselt’s theory of condensation have been discussed. In the chapter on heat exchangers detailed classification, selection, analysis and design procedures have been enumerated while two chapters on numerical simulation have also been included.

About the Book: Introduction to nanofluids--their properties, synthesis, characterization, and applications Nanofluids are attracting a great deal of interest with their enormous potential to provide enhanced performance properties, particularly with respect to heat transfer. In response, this text takes you on a complete journey into the science and technology of nanofluids. The authors cover both the chemical and physical methods for synthesizing nanofluids, explaining the techniques for creating a stable suspension of nanoparticles. You get an overview of the existing models and experimental techniques used in studying nanofluids, alongside discussions of the challenges and problems associated with some of these models.

Process Heat Transfer

Author(s): Sarit Kumar Das

Publisher: Narosa Publishing House, New Delhi (India)


ISBN: 978-81-7319-344-6


E-ISBN: NA


Publication Year: 2009


Pages: 750

About the Book: The present text is aimed at giving the students a substantial feel of the fundamentals of heat transfer applied to process industry. Though the introduction of the material is made at the undergraduate level for a first course in ‘Process Heat Transfer’, it includes enough advanced material for postgraduate courses on ‘Process Heat Transfer’ or ‘Heat Exchangers’. The text starts with summary of single phase heat transfer. Subsequently classification, selection and basic theory of heat transfer equipment are explained. Based on this, traditional heat exchangers as well as stirred tanks are treated in detail. Special emphasis has been laid on plate type heat exchangers. The second part introduces two-phase heat transfer followed by apparatus dealing with phase change such as condensers, evaporators, reboilers and cooling towers. Finally, recent advances in process optimization through pinch technology and energy analysis along with transient response of heat exchangers are introduced. The textbook stresses on design approach.

About the Book: This book is designed to give a comprehensive understanding of the subject, starting from the basics. No prior knowledge is assumed. After giving a historical introduction to the subject, a review of the various experimental tools to understand nanoscale materials is presented. This is followed by specific areas which cover theoretical basis of nanoscale phenomena, advanced nanomaterials, novel properties of materials at this length scale, new applications and societal implications of nanoscience and nanotechnology. A set of experiments designed to give an understanding of the subjects is collected in the appendices. Each of these is written by the best practitioners in the area. While the book captures the expertise of all, care has been taken so that each section is complementary. The material connects fundamentals to advanced research.
