This is the second edition of the book "Thermodynamics of Fluids under Flow," which was published in 2000 and has now been corrected, expanded and updated. This is a companion book to our other title Extended irreversible thermodynamics (D. Jou, J. Casas-Vazquez and G. Lebon, Springer, 4th edition 2010), and of the textbook Understanding non-equilibrium thermodynamics (G. Lebon, D. Jou and J. Casas-Vazquez, Springer, 2008. The present book is more specialized than its counterpart, as it focuses its attention on the non-equilibrium thermodynamics of flowing fluids, incorporating non-t.
Non-equilibrium thermodynamics and rheology -- Non-equilibrium temperature and entropy in flowing ideal gases: maximum-entropy approach -- Kinetic theory of flowing gases and phonons, phonon hydrodynamics and heat transport in nanosystems -- Non-ideal fluids and nuclear collisions -- Polymeric solutions and blends -- Non-equilibrium chemical potential and shear-induced effects in polymer solutions and blends -- Comparison of thermodynamical and dynamical approaches -- Shear-induced migration and flow chromatography -- Taylor dispersion and anomalous diffusion -- Chemical reactions and polymer degradation under flow -- Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of laminar and turbulent superfluids.
