The present book was written by the outstanding Soviet scientist, academician of the Belarusian Academy of Sciences, Professor Aleksei V. Luikov, not long before his death in 1974. This is the amended and supplemented second edition of the popular reference book published in 1972.
Heat- and mass-transfer theory deals with the transfer of energy (heat), momentum, and mass, and embraces some sections of molecular physics, aerohydrodynamics, reversible and irreversible thermodynamics, physicochemistry of surface effects, and chemical engineering. Convective diffusion transfer processes are considered in terms of irreversible and nonlinear thermodynamics of continua. In this second edition, considerable attention and space have been devoted to asymmetric hydrodynamics due to the increasing importance of rheological materials, for which classical transfer equations are not applicable. Transfer equations based on nonlinear relations with memory govern transfer phenomena in such materials more accurately.
The chapters “Heat Conduction” and “Convective Heat Transfer” have been amended and supplemented. In the solution of convective heat transfer problems, the author substituted fourth-kind boundary conditions for boundary conditions of the third kind. In all cases, heat transfer in fluids is analysed jointly with heat transfer in a solid wall.
The chapter “Transport Phenomena in Capillary-Porous Bodies” is supplemented with a theoretical analysis of mass transfer in such materials in the presence of phase conversions (liquid evaporation), which is of great practical importance for the development of calculation procedures for transpiration cooling and duration of drying processes.
The sixth chapter entitled “Analytical Heat and Mass Diffusion Theory” comprises an analysis of the differential heat and moisture transfer equations in capillary-porous colloid materials during limit transitions, which is applicable to drying processes and experimental methods of determining thermophysical properties.
