About this title

Synopsis

This is volume 2 of a monograph on the current knowledge of phenomena and the theory and analysis of multiphase systems. Multiphase media are, increasingly, the rule rather than the exception in modern industrial practice. The book offers a systematic treatment of energy, mass and momentum exchange in multiphase systems along with other applications which include shock hardening of metals, boiling heat transfer, critical flow of two-phase mixtures, combustion of fuel droplets, tertiary oil recovery and detonation of powders. The approach covers all transport processes of importance in multiphase mixtures and also covers the specific behaviour of these processes when subjected to the passage of transient waves. This volume covers the wave dynamics of bubbly liquids, the characteristics of gas-liquid and vapour-liquid flows in channels and the flow characteristics of heterogeneous media. The book is intended for the use of a range of engineers, students and researchers in the fields of chemical, nuclear, mechanical and aerospace engineering.
