Microflows

Subject area has witnessed explosive growth during the last decade and the technology is progressing at an astronomical rate. Previous edition was first to focus exclusively on flow physics within microdevices. It sold over 900 copies in North America since 11/01. New edition is 40 percent longer, with four new chapters on recent topics including Nanofluidics.

Subject area has witnessed explosive growth during the last decade and the technology is progressing at an astronomical rate.

This book provides a comprehensive summary of using computational tools to describe fluid flow in micro and nano configuration. This new version of the original book now covers length scales from Angstroms to microns (and beyond). The authors have maintained the emphasis on fundamental concepts with a mix of semianalytical, experimental and numerical results, and have outlined their relevance to modeling and analyzing functional devices.
