Introductory Transport Phenomena by R. Byron Bird, Warren
E. Stewart, Edwin N. Lightfoot, and Daniel Klingenberg is a new
introductory textbook based on the classic Bird, Stewart, Lightfoot
text, Transport Phenomena. The authors' goal in writing this
book reflects topics covered in an undergraduate course. Some of
the rigorous topics suitable for the advanced students have been
retained.

The text covers topics such as: the transport of momentum; the
transport of energy and the transport of chemical species. The
organization of the material is similar to Bird/Stewart/Lightfoot,
but presentation has been thoughtfully revised specifically for
undergraduate students encountering these concepts for the first
time.

Devoting more space to mathematical derivations and providing
fuller explanations of mathematical developments--including a
section of the appendix devoted to mathematical topics--allows
students to comprehend transport phenomena concepts at an
undergraduate level.

"Introductory Transport Phenomena is one of the most complete books on the subject, including sections on the topics of momentum, mass and energy transport. It's unusual to find a book that so deeply covers all three subjects as this one."
--May 2015 TCE Book Review, José Carlos Magalhães Pires, postdoctoral researcher, University of Porto

R. Byron Bird is a chemical engineer and professor emeritus in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He is known for his research in transport phenomena of non-Newtonian fluids, including fluid dynamics of polymers, polymer kinetic theory, and rheology.
