Contributor(s): Language: eng. Publication details: Boca Raton : CRC Press, 2019.Description: xv, 381 p. : ill. ; 23 cmISBN:
  • 9780367030803 (pbk.)
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 621.402 MAH/C
Summary: Focusing on heat transfer in porous media, this book covers recent advances in nano and macro’ scales. Apart from introducing heat flux bifurcation and splitting within porous media, it highlights two-phase flow, nanofluids, wicking, and convection in bi-disperse porous media. New methods in modeling heat and transport in porous media, such as pore-scale analysis and Lattice–Boltzmann methods, are introduced. The book covers related engineering applications, such as enhanced geothermal systems, porous burners, solar systems, transpiration cooling in aerospace, heat transfer enhancement and electronic cooling, drying and soil evaporation, foam heat exchangers, and polymer-electrolyte fuel cells.
