Transport Phenomena - Overview
• Momentum (fluid dynamics), heat and mass
transfer developed independently as
branches of classical physics
• Long regarded as a mathematical subject,
Transport Phenomena is the most significant
for its physical significance
• The essence of this subject is the compact
statement of conservation principles, along
with expressions for fluxes, with the
emphasis on similarities and differences
among the three transport processes

What are the Transport Phenomena?
The subject of transport phenomena includes
three closely related topics:
• Fluid dynamics
Transport of momentum
• Fluid flow
• Heat transfer
Transport of energy
• Heat exchangers
• Mass transfer
Transport of mass of various chemical species
• Absorption, distillation, evaporation,
adsorption, drying, etc.

Distillation Column
In Distillation column there will be
• Momentum transfer
Due to the movement of
• Feedstock into the distillation column
• Liquid down the column
• Vapor up the column
• Heat transfer
• Between the liquid and vapor
• In the condenser
• In the Re-boiler
• Mass Transfer
• Movement of the light component and
heavy component between the vapor
and liquid phases

Conservation Laws: An Example
Conservation of mass:- the total mass of the molecules
entering and leaving the collision must be equal.
m A mB mA mB
Since there are no chemical reactions, the masses of
individual species will also be conserved.
m A mA
mB mB
Note that mass of a molecule is the sum of mass of each
of the atoms in the molecule

Conservation of Momentum
Conservation of Momentum:- the sum of the momenta of all atoms
before the collision must be equal to that after the collision

Conservation of Energy
Summary
Each molecule in motion has
1. kinetic energy with respect to any stationary
reference frame
2. kinetic energy due to the motion ( vibration
and rotation) of its atoms with respect to its Internal
center of mass Energy
3. Intermolecular potential energy due to the
bond between the atoms
