The book provides an easy way to understand the fundamentals of
heat transfer. The reader will acquire the ability to design and
analyze heat exchangers. Without extensive derivation of the
fundamentals, the latest correlations for heat transfer
coefficients and their application are discussed. The following
topics are presented - Steady state and transient heat conduction -
Free and forced convection - Finned surfaces - Condensation and
boiling - Radiation - Heat exchanger design - Problem-solving After
introducing the basic terminology, the reader is made familiar with
the different mechanisms of heat transfer. Their practical
application is demonstrated in examples, which are available in the
Internet as MathCad files for further use. Tables of material
properties and formulas for their use in programs are included in
the appendix. This book will serve as a valuable resource for both
students and engineers in the industry.
The author's experience indicates that students, after 40
lectures and exercisesof 45 minutesbasedon this textbook, have
proved capable of designing independently complex heat exchangers
such as for cooling of rocket propulsion chambers, condensers and
evaporators for heat pumps."
