This book presents a new approach for the modeling of chemical and interphase mass transfer processes in industrial column apparatuses, using convection-diffusion and average-concentration models. The convection-diffusion type models are used for a qualitative analysis of the pr…
Applying an intuitive question-based approach that connects a breadth of topics in physics which apply both cosmic and nano-sized perspectives, this book tackles contemporary topics such as the structure of both the universe and the atom and the mathematical laws that apply to t…
Based on new information obtained on free microjets, this book explains the latest phenomena in flame evolution in the presence of a transverse acoustic field with round and plane propane microjet combustion. It gives an overview of recent experimental results on instability and…
