The book covers various topics of heat transfer. It explains and
analyzes several techniques and modes of heat transfer such as
conduction in stationary media, convection in moving media and also
by radiation. It is primarily a text book useful for undergraduate
and postgraduate students. The book should also interest practicing
engineers who wish to refresh their knowledge in the field. The
book presents the various topics in a systematic way starting from
first principles. The topics are developed to a fairly advanced
level towards the end of each chapter. Several worked examples
illustrate the engineering applications of the basic modeling tools
developed in the text. The exercises at the end of the book are
arranged chapter wise and challenge the reader to tackle typical
real-life problems in heat transfer. This book will be of potential
use for students of mechanical engineering, chemical engineering
and metallurgy in most engineering colleges.

"Computational Methods in Engineering" brings to light the
numerous uses of numerical methods in engineering. It clearly
explains the application of these methods mathematically and
practically, emphasizing programming aspects when appropriate. By
approaching the cross-disciplinary topic of numerical methods with
a flexible approach, "Computational Methods in Engineering"
encourages a well-rounded understanding of the subject.
This book's teaching goes beyond the text detailed exercises
(with solutions), real examples of numerical methods in real
engineering practices, flowcharts, and MATLAB codes all help you
learn the methods directly in the medium that suits you best.
Balanced discussion of mathematical principles and engineering
applicationsDetailed step-by-step exercises and practical
engineering examples to help engineering students and other readers
fully grasp the concepts Concepts are explained through flowcharts
and simple MATLAB codes to help you develop additional programming
skills "
The first edition of this book was co-published by Ane Books India,
and CRC Press in 2008. This second edition is an enlarged version
of the web course developed by the author at IIT Madras, and also a
modified and augmented version of the earlier book. Major
additions/modifications presented are in the treatment of errors in
measurement, temperature measurement, measurement of
thermo-physical properties, and data manipulation. Many new worked
examples have been introduced in this new and updated second
edition.
< p=""> This book focuses both on the basics and more complex
topics in mechanical measurements such as measurement errors &
statistical analysis of data, regression analysis, heat flux,
measurement of pressure, and radiation properties of surfaces. End
of chapter problems, solved illustrations, and exercise problems
are presented throughout the book to augment learning. It is a
useful reference for students in both undergraduate and
postgraduate programs. ^

A comprehensive textbook on mechanical measurement, this book
covers the material in five modules. Module I deals with the basics
of measurements without reference to any particular field and hence
is to be dealt with at the beginning. Chapters 4, 6 and 13 deal
with basic quantities that interest all engineers and should be
included in any course on "a oeMechanical Measurementsa ." Parts of
other chapters may be included to suit the requirements of a
particular class. The book may also be useful to practicing
engineers who want to refresh their knowledge of measurements. The
material of the book is based on the notes prepared for a course
taught by the author at IIT Madras for more than 20 years.
