This book serves as a training tool for individuals in industry and
academia involved with heat transfer applications. Although the
literature is inundated with texts emphasizing theory and
theoretical derivations, the goal of this book is to present the
subject of heat transfer from a strictly pragmatic point of view.
The book is divided into four Parts: Introduction, Principles,
Equipment Design Procedures and Applications, and ABET-related
Topics. The first Part provides a series of chapters concerned with
introductory topics that are required when solving most engineering
problems, including those in heat transfer. The second Part of the
book is concerned with heat transfer principles. Topics that
receive treatment include Steady-state Heat Conduction,
Unsteady-state Heat Conduction, Forced Convection, Free Convection,
Radiation, Boiling and Condensation, and Cryogenics. Part three
(considered the heart of the book) addresses heat transfer
equipment design procedures and applications. In addition to
providing a detailed treatment of the various types of heat
exchangers, this part also examines the impact of entropy
calculations on exchanger design, and operation, maintenance and
inspection (OM&I), plus refractory and insulation effects. The
concluding Part of the text examines ABET (Accreditation Board for
Engineering and Technology) related topics of concern, including
economies and finance, numerical methods, open-ended problems,
ethics, environmental management, and safety and accident
management.
