Title: Chemical Engineering  Fluid Mechanics
Description: Combining theoretical and empirical perspectives into a clearly organized and comprehensive text, Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics, Second Edition discusses the principal behavioral concepts of fluids and the basic methods of analysis for solving a variety of engineering situations.New and revised sections includepractical and seasoned applications of fundamental principles through specialized problems leading into general principles and complex exercisesthe latest and most accurate methods for determining friction loss in valves and fittings selection of proper control valve trim considering matching flow loop characteristicsfluid-particle interactions in Newtonian and non-Newtonian mediafluid-solid separation operationsparallel and analogous treatment of Newtonian and non-Newtonian flowshorizontal and vertical pipe flows of settling and non-settling Newtonian and non-Newtonian slurries pipe flows of gas-liquid, solid-liquid, and gas-solid two-phase systems   Considers the problems and concerns of performance, equipment operation, and sizing and selection from the viewpoint of a process engineer-with real-world engineering problems!Utilizing the author’s 35 years of academic experience to present the most current advances and previously unavailable information, Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics, Second Editionemphasizes the systematic application of general principles such as macroscopic mass, energy, and momentum balances and economicscovers the internal flows of Newtonian and non-Newtonian incompressible fluids, adiabatic and isothermal compressible flows, external flows, two-phase flows, and flow in porous mediareviews a variety of applications, including dimensional analysis and scale-up; piping systems for unknown driving forces, flow rates, and diameters; and centrifugal, sedimentation, and filtration fluid-particle separation methodsapplies the latest techniques for gas and liquid Newtonian and non-Newtonian flows in pipes, valves, fittings for non-circular conduits, pumps and compressors, packed columns, fluidized beds, centrifuges and cyclonesand more!Contains over 400 end-of-chapter problems and examples to reinforce essential concepts!Supplemented with over 1100 equations, literature references, illustrations, and tables, Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics, Second Edition serves as an insightful text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in fluid mechanics, unit operations, or plant design, as well as a useful resource for chemical, mechanical, plant, process, design, and civil engineers.
