Mass Transfer Driven Evaporation From Capillary Porous Media

<p>Mass Transfer–Driven Evaporation from Capillary Porous Media offers a comprehensive review of mass transfer–driven drying processes in capillary porous media, including pore-scale and macro-scale experiments and models. It covers kinetics of drying of a single pore, pore-scale experiments and models, macro-scale experiments and models, and understanding of the continuum model from pore-scale studies. The book: </p><ul><p><li>Explains the detailed transport processes in porous media during drying. </li><p></p><p><li>Introduces cutting-edge visualization experiments of drying in porous media. </li><p></p><p><li>Describes the pore network models of drying in porous media. </li><p></p><p><li>Discusses the continuum models of drying in porous media based on pore-scale studies. </li><p></p><p><li>Points out future research opportunities. </li><p></p></p></p></p></p></p></ul><p>Aimed at researchers, students and practicing engineers, this work provides vital fundamental and applied information to those working in drying technology, food processes, applied energy, and mechanical and chemical engineering.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
