Heat and Mass Transfer

Ashim K. Datta is a full Professor in the Department of Biological and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University. His basic research is in the physics-based understanding and optimization of food and biological process, safety, and quality; and simulationbased enhancement of teaching and learning. He is the recepient of numerous teaching awards at Cornell University and in the State of New York. Since 2004, Professor Datta has taught the course upon which this text is based and used.
