Answer to Question #167210 in Molecular Physics | Thermodynamics for Afraid

Question

Write three transport phenomenon

Answer 1

Transport Phenomena is the subject which deals with the movement of different physical quantities in any chemical or mechanical process and describes the basic principles and laws of transport. It also describes the relations and similarities among different types of transport that may occur in any system. Transport in a chemical or mechanical process can be classified into three types:

1. Momentum transport deals with the transport of momentum in fluids and is also known as fluid dynamics.

2. Energy transport deals with the transport of different forms of energy in a system and is also known as heat transfer.

3. Mass transport deals with the transport of various chemical species themselves.
