About Liquid-Vapor Phase-Change Phenomena: An
Product Description Since the second edition of Liquid-Vapor Phase-Change Phenomena was written, research has substantially enhanced the understanding of the effects of nanostructured surfaces, effects of microchannel and nanochannel geometries, and effects of extreme wetting on liquid-vapor phase-change processes. To cover advances in these areas, the new third edition includes significant new coverage of microchannels and nanostructures, and numerous other updates. More worked examples and numerous new problems have been added, and a complete solution manual and electronic figures for classroom projection will be available for qualified adopting professors. About the Author Van P. Carey is a Professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department, and holds the A. Richard Newton Chair in Engineering at the University of California at Berkeley. Carey is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and he has served as Chair of the Heat Transfer Division of ASME. Carey has received the James Harry Potter Gold Medal from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (2004) for eminent achievement in thermodynamics, the Heat Transfer Memorial Award in the Science category (2007) from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. He is also a three-time recipient of the Hewlett Packard Research Innovation Award for his research on electronics thermal management and energy efficiency (2008, 2009, 2010), and Carey received the 2014 Thermophysics Award from the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
