Radiative Heat Transfer

Radiative Heat Transfer

<p>The third edition of <i>Radiative Heat Transfer</i> describes the basic physics of radiation heat transfer. The book provides models, methodologies, and calculations essential in solving research problems in a variety of industries, including solar and nuclear energy, nanotechnology, biomedical, and environmental. </p> <p>Every chapter of <i>Radiative Heat Transfer</i> offers uncluttered nomenclature, numerous worked examples, and a large number of problems—many based on real world situations—making it ideal for classroom use as well as for self-study. The book's 24 chapters cover the four major areas in the field: surface properties; surface transport; properties of participating media; and transfer through participating media. Within each chapter, all analytical methods are developed in substantial detail, and a number of examples show how the developed relations may be applied to practical problems.</p><br /><br /><ul> <li>Extensive solution manual for adopting instructors </li> <li>Most complete text in the field of radiative heat transfer</li> <li>Many worked examples and end-of-chapter problems</li> <li>Large number of computer codes (in Fortran and C++), ranging from basic problem solving aids to sophisticated research tools</li> <li>Covers experimental methods</li></ul>
