Such knowledge is especially valuable for solving problems in the biochemical  chemical  energy  fermentation  materials  mining  petroleum  pharmaceuticals  polymer  and waste-processing industries. Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers  Second Edition  with Microfluidics and CFD  systematically introduces fluid mechanics from the perspective of the chemical engineer who must understand actual physical behavior and solve real-world problems. Building on a first edition that earned Choice Magazines Outstanding Academic Title award  this edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the fields latest advances. This second edition contains extensive new coverage of both microfluidics and computational fluid dynamics  systematically demonstrating CFD through detailed examples using FlowLab and COMSOL Multiphysics. The chapter on turbulence has been extensively revised to address more complex and realistic challenges  including turbulent mixing and recirculating flows. Part I offers a clear  succinct  easy-to-follow introduction to macroscopic fluid mechanics  including physical properties; hydrostatics; basic rate laws for mass  energy  and momentum; and the fundamental principles of flow through pumps  pipes  and other equipment. Part II turns to microscopic fluid mechanics  which covers Differential equations of fluid mechanics Viscous-flow problems  some including polymer processing Laplaces equation  irrotational  and porous-media flows Nearly unidirectional flows  from boundary layers to lubrication  calendering  and thin-film applications Turbulent flows  showing how the k\/ method extends conventional mixing-length theory Bubble motion  two-phase flow  and fluidization Non-Newtonian fluids  including inelastic and viscoelastic fluids Microfluidics and electrokinetic flow effects including electroosmosis  electrophoresis  streaming potentials  and electroosmotic switching Computational fluid mechanics with FlowLab and COMSOL Multiphysics Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers  Second Edition  with Microfluidics and CFD  includes 83 completely worked practical examples  several of which involve FlowLab and COMSOL Multiphysics. There are also 330 end-of-chapter problems of varying complexity  including several from the University of Cambridge chemical engineering examinations. The author covers all the material needed for the fluid mechanics portion of the Professional Engineers examination.
