Definition

Simultaneous transport processes in which temperature fields and material (species) concentrations interact so that heat transfer affects mass transport and mass transport (including phase change or species enthalpy transport) affects heat transfer, producing coupled spatial and temporal distributions of temperature and concentration that cannot be obtained by solving heat and mass transport indep
