TheThird Edition of Liquid Vapor Phase Change Phenomena includes numerous updates and significant new coverage of microchannels and nanostructures. Worked examples and Solutions Manual have been have been added for classroom projection for qualified adopting professors.

Discusses microscale energy storage mechanisms from a quantum mechanics perspective, fundamentals of classical and statistical thermodynamics, and applications of equilibrium statistical thermodynamics to solid, liquid, and gas phase systems. The final chapters introduce nonequilibrium thermodynamics of transport phenomena and nonequilibrium effects and noncontinuum behavior at the microscale.
