This book offers a succinct review of single-phase flow and a solid grounding in the two-phase flow, focusing on mixture and separated flows. This graduate text provides a unified treatment of the fundamental principles of two-phase flow and shows how to apply the priciples to a variety of homogeneous mixture as well as separated liquid-liquid, gas-solid, liquid-solid, and gas-liquid flow problems, which maybe steady or transient, laminar or turbulent.
Each chapter contains several sample problems, which illustrate the outlined theory and provide approaches to find simplified analytic descriptions of complex two-phase flow phenomena. This well-balanced introductory text will be suitable for final year undergraduates and postgraduates in mechanical, chemical, biomedical, nuclear, environmental and aerospace engineering, as well as in applied mathematics and the physical sciences. It will be a valuable reference for practicing engineers and scientists.
A solutions manual will also be available and the book is accompanied by a CD-ROM with animations of the Two-Phase Flow Fundamentals and applications.
