This expanded and completely revised second edition of a bestseller presents the scientific foundations of particle motion in non-Newtonian media and demonstrates how understanding the fluid-dynamic behavior of single particles is used for modeling transport processes in complex multiphase flows. It covers macroscopic momentum, heat and mass transfer from a single rigid or fluid particle or ensembles of particles involving strong inter-particle interactions, such as in granular and...
More DescriptionThis expanded and completely revised second edition of a bestseller presents the scientific foundations of particle motion in non-Newtonian media and demonstrates how understanding the fluid-dynamic behavior of single particles is used for modeling transport processes in complex multiphase flows. It covers macroscopic momentum, heat and mass transfer from a single rigid or fluid particle or ensembles of particles involving strong inter-particle interactions, such as in granular and fibrous media, with different types of non-Newtonian fluids. The book also treats wall effects and falling-object rheometry. No other book offers such a rich selection of topics related to this field.
