This book comprises eight chapters covering the principal topics of basic and applied research on transport phenomena in metallurgical refining and production systems. Each chapter contains a comprehensive review of the international literature, a thorough analysis of major innovations, and critical discussions of controversial issues at the forefront of developments in transport phenomena. Basic concepts and fundamentals are emphasized and illustrated by examples from industry. This is particularly true in the chapters devoted to high-temperature processes, metal flow and flow-control systems, injection of reactive materials into melts, refractories and melt interaction, design of continuous-casting systems, and electrometallurgical processing. Scientists and engineers engaged in research and development for the metallurgical industries will find this book invaluable. The text is sufficiently fundamental to serve as a textbook for a graduate course in Process Metallurgy or as an important reference work for researchers.
