Foundational analogies between fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mass transfer, and the applications of those analogies to practice: Navier-Stokes, Fourier’s Law, Fick’s Laws and Chilton-Colburn J-factor. Turbulence: boundary layers, scaling, dispersion. Techniques for solving unsteady-state systems. Empirical correlations for estimating heat and mass transfer coefficients. Motion of particles in fluids. Theory and design of industrial equipment for clarification/sedimentation and cyclone separation.
