Treats momentum transport (viscous flow), energy transport (heat conduction, convection, and radiation), and mass transport (diffusion). All topics are organized around the “equations of change”: the equations of motion, energy, and continuity. Careful attention is paid to the presentation of the basic theory.* Enhanced sections throughout text provide much firmer foundation than the first edition.* Literature citations are given throughout for reference to additional material.
