FEATURES
Introduces order-of-magnitude (scaling) analysis and uses it to quickly obtain approximate solutions for complicated problems throughout the book
Focuses on building models to solve practical problems
Adds new sections on non-Newtonian flows, turbulence, and measurement of heat transfer coefficients
Offers expanded sections on thermal resistance networks, transient heat transfer, two-phase diffusion mass transfer, and flow in porous media
Features more homework problems, mostly on the analysis of practical problems, and new examples from a much broader range of materials classes and processes, including metals, ceramics, polymers, and electronic materials
Includes homework problems for the review of the mathematics required for a course based on this book and connects the theory represented by mathematics with real-world problems
This book is aimed at advanced engineering undergraduates and students early in their graduate studies, as well as practicing engineers interested in understanding the behavior of heat and mass transfer and fluid flow during materials processing. While it is designed primarily for materials engineering education, it is a good reference for practicing materials engineers looking for insight into phenomena controlling their processes.
A solutions manual, lecture slides, and figure slides are available for qualifying adopting professors. Companion website: https://transportphenomena.org/

Persons
Matthew John M. Krane (1964- ) is Professor of Materials Engineering at Purdue University and a member of the Purdue Center for Metal Casting Research and the Purdue Heat Treatment Consortium. Using modeling and experiments, his research focuses on the connection between macroscopic transport phenomena and defect formation during materials processes, particularly the study of the solidification of metal alloys. Professor Krane has been with Purdue's School of Materials Engineering since 1996, but his education is in mechanical engineering (Cornell, BS, 1986; Pennsylvania, MS, 1989; Purdue, PhD, 1996), with a concentration in heat transfer and fluid flow. He has been a visiting researcher at the University of Birmingham (UK), the University of Greenwich (UK), and the Universite de Lorraine (Nancy, France). In addition to consulting, research programs, and undergraduate projects with the metals processing industry during his time at Purdue, he worked in industry for three years on thermal issues in the design and manufacturing of electronic packaging.
