Description
Transport phenomena in porous media continues to be a field which attracts intensive research activity. This is primarily due to the fact
that it plays an important and practical role in a large variety of diverse scientific applications. Transport Phenomena in Porous
Media II covers a wide range of the engineering and technological applications, including both stable and unstable flows, heat and
mass transfer, porosity, and turbulence.
Transport Phenomena in Porous Media II is the second volume in a series emphasising
the fundamentals and applications of research in porous media. It contains 16 interrelated chapters of controversial, and in some cases
conflicting, research, over a wide range of topics. The first volume of this series, published in 1998, met with a very favourable reception. Transport Phenomena in Porous Media II maintains the original concept including a wide and diverse range of topics, whilst
providing an up-to-date summary of recent research in the field by its leading practitioners.
Audience
This book is primarily aimed at advanced researchers in porous media; mathematicians; physicists; geologists; chemists and practicing engineers.
