DESCRIPTION:
Andre Luiz A. Simoes said Um grande livro. O livro do Professor Brodkey é um clássico indispensável. Trata-se de um obra que aborda de forma altamente compreensível variados assuntos essenciais ligados à fluidodinâmica, incluindo um capítulo sobre fluidos não newtonianos e três sobre escoamentos multifásicos. A linguagem matemática é de nível elevado, embora de simples compreensão, sobretudo porque o autor teve o cuidado de escrever um capítulo introdutório sobre o assu. The best reference for advanced momentum transport. ce_siatkowsk@che.eng.ohio-state.edu In my studies as a Chemical Engineer specializing in Fluid Dynamics, I have not come across another book which has more content or is better organized in the topic of advanced momentum transport. Professor Brodkey outdid himself with this work, not only giving a detailed analysis of Newtonian fluids and laminar flow, but also thoroughly delving into the areas of non-Newtonian fluid flow modeling and applications. I fully and whole-heartedly recommend this book along with BS&L's 'Transport Phenomena' and Macosko's 'Rheology: Principles,. Five Stars must have
The book is divided into three main sections: Part I — A Theoretical Background to Fluid Flow; Part II — Applications of the Basic Flow Equations; Part II — Extensions of the Basic Flow Equations.When this book was first written, there was no single text suitable for graduate students dealing with fluid motion. Part III, comprising the major portion of the book, covers phenomenological and statistical theories of turbulence, non-Newtonian phenomena and multiphase flow.Although it is designed for chemical engineering students, this book covers a wide range of topics not ordinarily found in fluid mechanics textbooks, making it an invaluable sourcebook for any engineer concerned with real-life fluid flow problems. It remained for Professor Brodkey (Emeritus, Chemical Engineering,
