This beginning graduate text is the first comprehensive work on latent heat transfer. It covers all forms: evaporation, sublimation, melting, condensation, freezing, and deposition. Throughout the book there is emphasis on the fundamentals that apply to both industrial and environmental processes. Three introductory chapters on the history and significance of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics are followed by self-contained treatments of solidification, fluidification, condensation, evaporation and boiling. The final chapter includes worked examples. Overall, the book provides insight for graduate students in engineering.
