Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics Of Heterogeneous Systems
by Signe Kjelstrup and Dick Bedeaux
Published 1 January 2008
This book utilizes non-equilibrium thermodynamics to describe transport in complex, heterogeneous media. There are large coupling effects between transport of heat, mass, charge and chemical reactions at surfaces, and it is important to know how one should properly integrate across systems where different phases are in contact. There is no other book available today that gives a prescription of how to set up flux equations for transports across heterogeneous systems.
