Rathore: Engineering Heat Transfer 2nd Edition

Intended as a textbook for undergraduate courses in heat transfer for students of mechanical, chemical, aeronautical, and metallurgical engineering, or as a reference for professionals in industry, Engineering Heat Transfer 2nd Edition emphasizes the clear understanding of theoretical concepts followed by practical applications. Treating each subject analytically and then numerically, it provides step-by-step solutions of numerical problems through the use of systematic procedures by a prescribed format.

With more than a million users in industry, MATLAB is the most popular computing programming language among engineers. Engineering Heat Transfer 2nd Edition has been updated to include discussions on how to develop programs that solve heat transfer problems using MATLAB, which allows the student to rapidly develop programs that involve complex numerical and engineering heat transfer computations.

Key Features

• Every problem in the book is solved in the most appropriate methodology.
• Provides review questions, and a variety of exercise problems to best ensure learning.
• General data, formulae, and principles of engineering thermodynamics are used in the text for better understanding.
• Accompanying CD-ROM includes MATLAB program files, figures from the text, additional chapters, and A Heat Transfer Program by MATLAB programmer Morteza Ahmadi.
