Overview

This second edition attests to the impact of the subject matter in a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines. There has been tremendous growth in areas such as transport phenomena/materials science and processing. This book builds on and updates the editor's earlier work. It highlights recent advances in the motion of particles, drops and bubbles in complex fluids and represents a timely and needed addition to the literature on real (non-linear) materials. In particluar, it contains state-of-the-art contributions from leading experts in areas such as particle deposition in membranes, flow of granular mixtures, food suspensions, foams, electrokinetic and thermocapillary driven flows, and two-phase flows.

Booknews

Nine literature reviews and research reports discuss the movement of discrete things through stuff in a different phase, at a level accessible to engineers and scientists in chemistry. Among the topics are the motion of bubbles and drops in reduced gravity, shapes of fluid particles, the rheology of filled polymeric systems. Reproduced from authors' copies. Annotation c.

From The Critics

Sixteen reviews of the state of knowledge in the fields of applied mathematics, biological engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, environmental engineering, and mechanical engineering, are presented by De Kee (chemical engineering, Laval U., Canada) and Chhabra (chemical engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, India). Each of the chapters entails the presence of a fluid or a solid dispersed phase. Specific topics include cavitation and bubble dynamics; foam drainage, coarsening, and evaporation; interphase mass and heat transfer in gas-fluidized beds; progress in an industrial application of fluidized bed; sedimentation and fluidization of solid particles in liquids; and tracer dispersion in fluid motion through a porous medium.
