About This Item
US: Dover Publications, 2011. Paperback. Very Good. This introduction to heat transfer offers advanced undergraduate and gradua te engineering students a solid foundation in the subjects of conduction, c onvection, radiation, and phase-change, in addition to the related topic of mass transfer. A staple of engineering courses around the world for more t han three decades, it has been revised and updated regularly by the authors , a pair of recognized experts in the field. The text addresses the implica tions, limitations, and meanings of many aspects of heat transfer, connecti ng the subject to its real-world applications and developing students' insi ght into related phenomena. Three introductory chapters form a minicourse in heat transfer, covering al l of the subjects discussed in detail in subsequent chapters. This unique a nd effective feature introduces heat exchangers early in the development, r ather than at the end. The authors also present a novel and simplified meth od for dimensional analysis, and they capitalize on the similarity of natur al convection and film condensation to develop these two topics in a parall el manner. Worked examples and end-of-chapter exercises appear throughout t he book, along with well-drawn, illuminating figures. Editorial Reviews About the Author John H.
