Beschreibung:
This concise and unified text reviews recent contributions to the principles of convective heat transfer for single and multi-phase systems. This valuable new edition has been updated throughout and contains new examples and problems.
Convective heat transfer is the result of fluid flowing between objects of different temperatures. This graduate-level text reviews in a concise and unified manner recent contributions to the principles of convective heat transfer for single and multi-phase systems, concentrating on the latter. The emphasis on multiple phases and on energy-conversion mechanisms, such as phase changes or chemical reactions, will make this text a valuable reference for practicing engineers.
