Engineering Heat Transfer, Third Edition

Adhering to the same pedagogical philosophy that made the first two editions of this text a perennial bestseller, Engineering Heat Transfer, Third Edition provides students with a highly readable and concrete presentation on this otherwise abstract topic. Drawings, sketches, and graphs are provided in abundance, as are examples and problems. The examples amplify the theory and show how the derived equations are used to model physical problems. The emphasis is on problems that are practical in nature.New in the Third Edition: --Coverage of emerging topics in heat transfer -- Consideration of heat transfer in electrical-component applications -- A simplified approach to Navier Stokes derivations, making the material better suited for a mechanical engineering curriculum -- Revised and additional problems, along with revised and new examplesThis authoritative text covers practical applications in a way that de-emphasizes mathematical techniques, but preserves physical interpretation of heat transfer fundamentals and modeling of heat transfer phenomena. The end-of-chapter problems proceed from short and simple confidence builders to difficult and lengthy problems that will greatly help students develop a rigorous yet concrete approach to problem solving that will greatly assist them throughout their continued education and professional careers.PDF files of the Solutions Manual available on a chapter-by-chapter basis for qualifying professorsJanna, William S. is the author of 'Engineering Heat Transfer, Third Edition', published 2009 under ISBN 9781420072020 and ISBN 1420072021.
