Description

A comprehensive introduction to heat transfer, this textbook provides a solid foundation for advanced undergraduate and graduate engineering students. Covering conduction, convection, radiation, phase-change, and mass transfer, it offers a thorough understanding of the subject's implications, limitations, and real-world applications. The book introduces key concepts early on, including heat exchangers, and presents a novel method for dimensional analysis. It also explores the similarities between natural convection and film condensation, making these topics more accessible to students. With worked examples, end-of-chapter exercises, and well-illustrated figures, this textbook is an effective resource for learning about heat transfer. Suitable for those studying engineering or a related field, this textbook offers a thorough introduction to the subject of heat transfer.
