Convective Heat and Mass Transfer in Porous Media edited by Sadik Kakaç, Birol Kilkis, Frank A. Kulacki, Faruk Annç.

The rapid growth of literature on convective heat and mass transfer through porous media has brought both engineering and fundamental knowledge to a new state of completeness and depth. Additionally, several new questions of fundamental merit have arisen in several areas which bear direct relation t...
