        • CHAPTER 1 : Introduction to Transport Modes File

          The subject of transfer phenomena, also known as transport phenomena, has three closely related topics: fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and mass transfer. Fluid dynamics involves the transport of momentum, heat transfer deals with the transport of energy, and mass transfer is concerned with the transport of mass of various chemical species.
