The second edition of Heat Transfer, with significantly expanded coverage including a new chapter, is a comprehensive textbook aimed at undergraduate students of mechanical, chemical, metallurgical, and aerospace engineering.
It will also serve as a useful text to postgraduate students specializing in thermal sciences, and for practicing engineers and researchers.
The book provides an exhaustive coverage of two- and three-dimensional heat conduction, forced and free convection, boiling and radiation heat transfer, heat exchangers, mass transfer, and computer methods in heat transfer. The main emphasis is on fundamental concepts and their applications to complex problems.
