Features: This book is written by the Chemical Engineering Principles Teaching and Research Office of Sichuan University, based on years of teaching experience and accumulated materials. It draws inspiration from the spirit of multiple national "Textbook Construction Seminars for Chemical Engineering Talent Cultivation Plans and Curriculum System Reform Towards the 21st Century." Following the principle of "solid foundation and broad specialization," the book is divided into two parts: "Fundamentals of Transport Phenomena" and "Chemical Engineering Unit Operations." With a concise and comprehensive approach, it elaborates on the physical essence, main laws, and expressions of transport phenomena. On this foundation, it systematically introduces the principles, characteristics, process and equipment calculations of various chemical engineering unit operations. The book strives to integrate fundamental theory with engineering practice. It is published in two volumes. Volume 1, in addition to the introduction and appendices, includes eight chapters: Transport Phenomena in Fluids, Basic Equations of Transport Phenomena, Fluid Transport and Fluid Transport Machinery, Particle-Fluid Two-Phase Flow, Particle-Fluid Non-Homogeneous System Separation, Mixing, Heat Transfer, and Evaporation. Each chapter ends with selected exercises and discussion questions. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in chemical engineering and related fields, as well as a reference for researchers and engineering professionals in related fields.
