Coulson and Richardson's Chemical Engineering: Volume 1a: Fluid Flow: Fundamentals and Applications

Coulson and Richardson's Chemical Engineering: Volume 1: Fluid Flow, Heat Transfer and Mass Transfer: Fundamentals and Applications, Seventh Edition, covers the three main transport processes of interest to chemical engineers: momentum transfer (fluid flow), heat transfer, and mass transfer, and the relationships among them. Particulate Systems and Particle Technology has been developed from the series' Volume One, Fifth Edition. This volume covers the properties of particulate systems, including the character of individual particles and their behavior in fluids. Sedimentation of particles, both singly and at high concentrations, flow in packed and fluidized beads, and filtration are then examined. . Separation Processes also has been developed from the series' Volume Two, Fifth Edition. This volume covers distillation and gas absorption, which illustrate applications of the fundamental principles of mass transfer. Several techniques--adsorption, ion exchange, chromatographic and membrane separations, and process intensification--are described. . Chemical & Biochemical Reactors and Reaction Engineering has been developed from the series' Volume Three, Third Edition. This volume covers reactor design, flow modeling, and gas-liquid and gas-solid reactions and reactors. Process Control also has been developed from the series' Volume Three, Third Edition. This volume covers sensors for measurement and control as well as process control.
