Transport Phenomena

Transport phenomena refer to the study of how momentum, energy, and mass move within fluids and between different materials. In fluid mechanics, this concept covers how fluids flow, how heat transfers through substances, and how particles or chemicals are transported in a medium. Essentially, it examines the physical processes that govern the behavior of fluids, helping us understand and predict how they interact with their surroundings and each other, which is crucial for engineering applications like designing pipes, heat exchangers, and understanding weather patterns.
