Some basic terms and definitions from two-phase flow theory are required for the description of heat transfer in boiling. For this we will consider the section of a channel shown in Fig. 4.48, in which the gas and liquid are flowing. An annular flow is shown in the picture for the sake of simplicity, but the following terms are... 

In Chapter 1 are presented all the basic terms and definitions needed for the subsequent description of both low-molecular and polymer systems, thereby serving as an always-at-hand manual.

As with most fields, the study of reaction kinetics has some terminology with which one must be familiar in order to understand advanced bool and research papers in the area. The following is a summary of some of these basic terms and definitions. Many of these may be known from previous studies in introductory and physical chemistry, and further background can be obtained from textbooks devoted to the physical chemistry aspects of reaction kinetics.
