Artificial Organ Engineering by Maria Cristina Annesini
English | PDF | 2017 | 271 Pages | ISBN : 1447164423 | 6.6 MB
Artificial organs may be considered as small-scale process plants, in which heat, mass and momentum transfer operations and, possibly, chemical transformations are carried out. This book proposes a novel analysis of artificial organs based on the typical bottom-up approach used in process engineering. Starting from a description of the fundamental physico-chemical phenomena involved in the process, the whole system is rebuilt as an interconnected ensemble of elemental unit operations.
