Fundamentals of Momentum, Heat, and Mass Transfer, now in its fifth edition, continues to provide a unified treatment of momentum transfer (fluid mechanics), heat transfer, and mass transfer. This new edition has been updated to include more coverage of modern topics such as biomedical/biological applications as well as an added separations topic on membranes. Additionally, the fifth edition will focus on an explicit problem-solving methodology that is thoroughly and consistently implemented throughout the text.

Designed for undergraduates taking transport phenomena or transfer and rate process courses.

Maybe a classic, but 5th ed. full of TYPOs! Sep 29, 2008 By K. Lawrence
I have carefully studied this text over a two-semester series in transport phenomena and I am amazed at the severity of typographical errors. For example, eqn 27-15 on pg 502 is missing a crucial 1/n term in the infinite sum. Equation 30-20 on pg 582 is completely misplaced-- it should be on the next page. Virtually every page you turn to has at least one typo, sometimes up to ten. It is criminal to sell a book for upwards of $150 without extensive proofreading. Next time hire an editor (I'm available for a reasonable pay).

Nice mass transfer portion Apr 03, 2008 By Yue Meng Yi
I didn't really like the portions on heat and momentum transfer, because I think there are other more specialised books dealing with those areas, and the applications problems weren't that great.

The mass transfer portion was my favourite. I really appreciated the straightforward, fun and exiciting applications the authors incorporated into the text. It is a very good introduction to mass transfer. Hand-waving aside, I guess there has to be a balance somewhere, so for most people, it is good enough, as it is for me.

Overall 4-star grading, but only because of the good mass transfer portion.

Outstanding condition, fast service Oct 21, 2011 By Matt
I had a great experience with this seller. Fast shipment, good price, I'd do it again!

This book is the same book we study in our ChemE classes at Tech and some of the BME classes.

Have I written enough, yet?

Fundamentals of Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer. Feb 01, 2012 By Alb-Cass
I use this book as an excellent complement to other two which I think best. I am referring to the classic B. S. L. (Transport Phenomena) and specially, Slattery (Advanced Transport Phenomena) which is far more rigorous. But this book has great problems and a help system for preparing Power Points of the lectures that is very good. It has the advantage of being a bit simpler than B. S. L. and, for an undergradate course, it can be very useful. Moreover, it is very didatic and easy to follow.
