Second Edition
edited by W. J. Minkowycz
Handbook of Numerical Heat Transfer covers the basic equations for numerical method calculations regarding heat transfer problems and applies these to problems encountered in aerospace, nuclear power, chemical processes, electronic packaging, and other related areas of mechanical engineering.
Features:
- Updated coverage of parabolic systems, hyperbolic systems, integral-and integro-differential systems, Monte Carlo and perturbation methods, and inverse problems
- Usable computer programs that allow quick applications to aerospace, chemical, nuclear, and electronic packaging industries
- User-friendly nomenclature listings include all the symbols used in each chapter so that chapter-specific symbols are readily available
