Equips practicing engineers and students with the tools to independently assess and understand complex material on the topic.

An ideal precursor to advanced heat transfer courses!

Intermediate Heat Transfer discusses

• numerical analysis in conduction and convection
• temperature-dependent thermal conductivity
• conduction through a slab from one fluid to another fluid
• steady-state head conduction in a two-dimensional fin
• truncation and round-off errors in finite difference method

Replete with sample problems to clarify concepts, Intermediate Heat Transfer is an indispensable resource for professionals and seniors and first-year graduate students pursuing tracks in mechanical, aerospace, nuclear, and chemical engineering.
