Description

This book provides a friendly introduction to convection in porous media, such as fibrous insulation, geological strata, and catalytic reactors. The presentation is self-contained, requiring only routine classical mathematics and the basic elements of fluid mechanics and heat transfer. It will be of use not only to researchers and practicing engineers as a review and reference, but also to graduate students and others just entering the field.
