Features: This book is translated from the 4th edition of "Fundamentals of Momentum, Heat, and Mass Transfer" by J.R. Welty, C.E. Wicks, R.E. Wilson, and G.L. Rorrer of Oregon State University in the United States. It discusses the fundamental principles and applications of momentum, heat, and mass transfer (also known as the "three transfers"). The book unifies the description of the three transfer processes, which helps to gain a deep understanding of transfer phenomena and mechanisms. A distinctive feature of this book is the use of the control volume method to analyze transfer processes. The content is rich, data is detailed, theoretical explanations are thorough, mathematical derivations are rigorous, and it includes numerous examples and exercises, reflecting the latest achievements in this field and having high reference value. This book can serve as a textbook and reference for engineering majors in higher education institutions, as well as for engineering technicians in fields such as chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, power engineering, and aerospace.
