Paper format. EGBC 04-CHEM-B1 Transport Phenomena, May 2016, 3 hours, open-book. Six problems in three sections (A Fluid Mechanics, B Heat Transfer, C Mass Transfer); candidates attempt one from each section plus a fourth (four of six at 25 marks each). All six problems are solved below as a complete study resource. Appendix A of the paper supplies the equations of change (continuity, Navier–Stokes, energy and species tables) in rectangular, cylindrical and spherical coordinates — these are quoted rather than re-derived.
