Advance Heat Transfer

This book covers various details regarding heat transfer like basic concepts of heat transfer, steady state heat conduction, heat transfer from extended surfaces, transient heat conduction, radiation process & properties, radiation heat transfer, convection, boiling & condensation and heat exchangers. The book is conceived as a standard reference book for students, experts, and policy makers. While covering the basics of scientific and engineering principles of heat transfer, the book further deals with ample solved numericals for various practical applications. The book is designed to fulfill the much awaited need for a handy, scientific, and easy to understand comprehensive handbook for design professionals and students of mechanical and mechatronics engineering courses. Besides the sheer breadth of the topics covered, what makes this well researched book different from earlier attempts is the fact that this is based on extensive practical experiences of the editor and the authors. Thus, a lot of emphasis has been placed on system sizing and integration. This book will be really very useful for all undergraduate, postgraduate students as well as faculties of various universities.
