Transport Phenomena is the first textbook about transport phenomena. It is specifically designed for chemical engineering students. The first edition was published in 1960, two years after having been preliminarily published under the title Notes on Transport Phenomena based on mimeographed notes prepared for a chemical engineering course taught at the University of Wisconsin–Madison during the academic year 1957-1958.[1][2] The second edition was published in August 2001.[3] A revised second edition was published in 2007.[4] This text is often known simply as BSL after its authors' initials.[5]
