Textbook:
Transport Phenomena, by Bird, Steward and Lightfoot, Wiley International, 2nd Ed. (2007)
Course Outcome
Upon successful completion of this course, the students will be able to:
1)
Understand the similarities between different types of transport phenomena.
2)
Apply the fundamental knowledge gained from the science of transport phenomena to
setup advanced engineering problems.
3)
Use the knowledge of advanced mathematics and numerical techniques to obtain
solutions for advanced transport phenomena problems.
4)
Derive various macroscopic quantities from the microscopic solutions (i.e. calculating
the momentum, heat, and mass flux from the velocity, temperature, and concentration
profiles).
