Boiling, Condensation, and Gas-Liquid Flow (Oxford Engineering Science Series)

By Peter B. Whalley

This practical text describes heat transfer phenomena involving boiling and condensation--important aspects of engineering in the power and process industries. As a necessary preliminary, a substantial portion of the book is concerned with gas-liquid two-phase flow. Later sections discuss heat transfer and changes of phase. Descriptions of equipment are also included, and a detailed section on calculation methods shows how theory can be applied to the real problems that arise in operating plants.
