This book arose out of a need that frequently faced us, namely coming up with problems to use ashomework in our classes and to use for quizzes. We have found that many otherwise excellenttextbooks in transport phenomena are deficient in providing challenging but basic problems thatteach the students to apply transport principles and learn the crucial engineering skill of problemsolving. A related challenge is to find such problems that are relevant to biomedical engineeringstudents.
The problems included here arise from roughly the last 20–30 years of our collectiveteaching experiences. Several of our problems have an ancestry in a basic set of fluid mechanicsproblems first written by Ascher Shapiro at MIT and later extended by Ain Sonin, also at MIT. RogerKamm at MIT also generously donated some of his problems that are particularly relevant tobiomedical transport phenomena. Thanks are due to Zdravka Cankova and Nirajan Rajkarnikar, whohelped with proof-reading of the text and provided solutions for many of the problems.
