Introduction to transport phenomena

"This book is a true introduction to transport phenomena that presents all basic principles with a minimum of mathematical complexity. Readers will only need to know the basics of differential equations, and how to use a differential equation solver such as MATLAB or ACSL.". "Professor William J. Thomson emphasizes the formulation of differential equations to describe physical problems, helping readers understand what they are doing - and why. The solutions are either simple (separable, linear second order) or derivable with a differential equation solver."--BOOK JACKET.
