This classic text on fluid flow, heat transport, and mass transport within materials has ann
now been brought up to date and greatly improved with this new second edition. A new ts
chapter on “Boiling and Condensation” expands and rounds out the book’s comprehen- e I
pn
r
sive coverage on transport phenomena. This new material is particularly important to ot
current research in renewable energy resources involving technologies such as windmills iarr
o
and solar panels. lt

The book provides materials science and engineering students and professionals with Pu
E
a clear yet thorough introduction to fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transport. It bal- h
n c
ances the explanation of the fundamentals governing fluid flow and the transport of heat get
and mass with common applications of these fundamentals to specific systems existing in nI

materials engineering. Readers will benefit from: n
em
• The use of familiar examples such as air and water to introduce the influences of e t
properties and geometry on fluid flow. reo

• An organization with sections dealing separately with fluid flow, heat transfer, i
na
and mass transport. This sequential structure allows the development of heat g

transport concepts to employ analogies of heat flow with fluid flow and the de-
velopment of mass transport concepts to employ analogies with heat transport.

About the Author
David R. Gaskell was born in Glasgow, Scotland and received B.Sc. degrees in metallurgy
and technical chemistry from the University of Glasgow in 1962. From 1962 to 1964,
he was employed as the Metallurgist with Laporte Chemical Ltd., a manufacturer of in-
dustrial chemicals, with two plants in England. He obtained his Ph.D. from McMaster
s e c o n d e d I t I o n
University in 1967, and from 1967 to 1982 he was a professor of metallurgy, materials
science and geology at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1982 he came to Purdue, where
he has won five departmental teaching awards. He has taught a variety of courses dealing
with materials properties, structures and processing, and he is the author of two texts,
one on the thermodynamics of materials, which is in its sixth edition, and this book on
transport phenomena in materials engineering, which is now in its second edition. His DaviD R. GaskEll
research interests include chemical and extraction metallurgy, thermodynamics, kinetics,
transport phenomena and materials processing.

Preface to the
Second Edition
The first edition of this textbook contained a large number of typographical errors.
In this, the second edition, a serious attempt has been made to correct these errors.
The major difference, however, between the first and this edition is that this edition
contains an additional chapter, Chapter 12, titled “Boiling and Condensation.” The
material presented in this chapter is particularly important in view of the current
interest in Renewal Energy Resources involving such devices as windmills and solar
panels. Developments in this field require a thorough familiarity with the phenomena
and mechanisms of boiling and condensation.
