Assael M.J., Goodwin A.R.H., Vesovic V. (Eds.) Experimental Thermodynamics Volume IX: Advances in Transport Properties of Fluids

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Cambridge, UK, 2014. – 425 p. – ISBN: 1849736774Written by the leading experts in the field, this book will provide a valuable, current account of the advances in the measurement and prediction of transport properties that have occurred over the last twenty years. Critical to industry, these properties are fundamental to, for example, the development of fossil fuels, carbon sequestration and alternative energy sources.
This unique and comprehensive account will provide the experimental and theoretical background of near-equilibrium transport properties which provide the background when investigating industrial applications. Coverage includes new experimental techniques and how existing techniques have developed, new fluids eg molten metals, dense fluids, and critical enhancements of transport properties of pure substances.
Practitioners and researchers in chemistry and engineering will benefit from this state of the art record of recent advances in the field of transport properties.Acoustic Techniques for Measuring Transport Properties of Gases
