Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a critique of thermodynamics, especially as it relates to the deleterious effect of over-reliance on computational models. The author argues that, lacking in accuracy and reliability, these models can lead to costly design errors and reduce future research in fluid properties. The book examines the role of data in science and technology, with particular emphasis on the economic impact of accurate data and its effect on the design and operation of large process systems. The author argues for greater reliance on theoretical approaches to generic solutions to the future data requirements of the chemical process and energy industries. The book concludes by emphasizing the responsibility of data producers to ensure the efficient transfer of data to ultimate users. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condición: New. This book deals with density, temperature, velocity and concentration fluctuations in fluids and fluid mixtures. The book first reviews thermal fluctuations in equilibrium fluids on the basis of fluctuating hydrodynamics. It then shows how the method of fluctuating hydrodynamics can be extended to deal with hydrodynamic fluctuations when the system is in a stationary nonequilibrium state. In contrast to equilibrium fluids where the fluctuations are generally short ranged unless the system is close to a critical point, fluctuations in nonequilibrium fluids are always long-ranged encompassing the entire system. The book provides the first comprehensive treatment of fluctuations in fluids and fluid mixtures brought out of equilibrium by the imposition of a temperature and concentration gradient but that are still in a macroscopically quiescent state. By incorporating appropriate boundary conditions in the case of fluid layers, it is shown how fluctuating hydrodynamics affects the fluctuations close to the onset of convection. Experimental techniques of light scattering and shadowgraphy for measuring nonequilibrium fluctuations are elucidated and the experimental results thus far reported in the literature are reviewed.…
