Bergman: Introduction to Heat Transfer 6th Edition

Introduction to Heat Transfer is the gold standard of heat transfer pedagogy for more than 30 years, with a commitment to continuous improvement by four authors having more than 150 years of combined experience in heat transfer education, research and practice. Written for courses that exclude coverage of mass transfer, the sixth edition of this text maintains its foundation in the four central learning objectives for students. With examples and problems that reveal the richness and beauty of this discipline, this text teaches students how to become efficient problem-solvers through the use of the rigorous and systematic problem-solving methodology pioneered by the authors. 

Fundamental concepts have received further emphasis in this new edition, making the text even more accessible while providing a bridge from those ideas to critical applications in areas such as energy and the environment. The Interactive Heat Transfer (IHT) software that accompanies the text has also been updated, allowing readers to solve problems even more efficiently and accurately.

New to This Edition

• Richness of the problems and examples – numerous contemporary applications have been added, especially in the area of ‘energy and the environment,’ including topics such as solar energy systems, renewable energy systems, and new manufacturing processes.
• Additional coverage of environmental issues, included an updated and augmented section on environmental radiation (12.9).
• As appropriate, the topic of thermodynamics has been augmented and carefully blended throughout the text, allowing readers to build upon those concepts and skills.
• Additional focus on and tailoring coverage down to the core fundamental concepts, while clearly indicating content that is either optional and/or more appropriate for a second course.
• Modernization and streamlining of the convection correlations helps students focus on the most useful correlations instead of getting lost or confused by the vast quantity of correlations.
• New version of Interactive Heat Transfer software – new Quickstart companion, new navigation that makes it easier.
• New version of Interactive Heat Transfer software - Problems involving complex models and/or exploratory, what-if, and parameter sensitivity considerations can efficiently and accurately be addressed using a computational equation-solving package. IHT has been designed for that specific purpose, and this new version provides a new Quickstart companion guide as well as a new, easier to use navigation scheme.

McDonald: Introduction to Thermo-Fluids Systems Design

A fully comprehensive guide to thermal systems design covering fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer and thermodynamic power cycles.

Bridging the gap between the fundamental concepts of fluid mechanics, heat transfer and thermodynamics, and the practical design of thermo-fluids components and systems, Introduction to Thermo-Fluids Systems Design focuses on the design of internal fluid flow systems, coiled heat exchangers and performance analysis of power plant systems. The topics are arranged so that each builds upon the previous chapter to convey to the reader that topics are not stand-alone items during the design process, and that they all must come together to produce a successful design.

Because the complete design or modification of modern equipment and systems requires knowledge of current industry practices, the authors highlight the use of manufacturer’s catalogs to select equipment, and practical examples are included throughout to give readers an exhaustive illustration of the fundamental aspects of the design process.

Key Features

• Demonstrates how industrial equipment and systems are designed, covering the underlying theory and practical application of thermo-fluid system design.

Baskharone: Thermal Science

A concise, illustrated core thermal science text with a focus on industrial applications. Essential for engineering students and those preparing for the FE/EIT exam, Thermal Science offers a one-semester course treatment of the three main topics in thermal science: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. In addition to theory, the book uses a numerical approach to heat transfer, solving large-scale, real-world engineering problems.

This book first covers thermodynamics, how energy is transformed and the interactions between temperature, pressure, and volume, and applications such as the efficiency of engines and refrigerators. Fluid mechanics is the second core topic and examines fluids, forces, and fluid motion; with applications in aerospace, chemical, civil, environmental, and mechanical engineering. Heat transfer is discussed next, the applications of which include heat exchangers, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning (HVAC), car radiators, hot water heaters, steam boilers, cooling of microelectronics, and even ordinary cooking utensils.

Key Features

• Offers a compact, one-semester course treatment of the three main topics in thermal science.
• Stresses the fundamentals of thermal sciences and covers sub-topics in depth, notably in fluid mechanics.
• Includes examples in each of the three sub-topics of thermal science, demonstrated with real-world engineering problems.
• Contains dozens of illustrations, some three-dimensional.
• Written by an expert who taught the course for 14 years and has several years of industrial experience in aerospace engineering.
• Valuable to engineers preparing for the FE/EIT exam.
• Puts definitions into perspective with simple language and examples.
