With complete coverage of the basic principles of heat transfer along with a broad range of applications in a flexible format, Heat Transfer: A Practical Approach, provides the perfect blend of fundamentals and applications. The text provides a highly intuitive and practical understanding of the material by emphasizing the physics and the underlying physical phenomena involved. Using a reader-friendly approach and a conversational writing style, the book is self-instructive and entertains while it teaches. It shows that highly technical matter can be communicated effectively in a simple yet precise language.

This text's practical approach emphasizes the physics and physical arguments of heat transfer.
Coverage of current industrial practices includes separate chapters on heating and cooling of buildings, refrigeration and freezing of foods, and electronics cooling.
Heat transfer concepts correlate to real-life activities and make the text more enjoyable to read.
This text provides complete coverage of basic principles along with a broad range of applications in a flexible format.
More than 1,000 illustrations help students visualize concepts.
More than 150 worked examples follow a systematic and intuitive approach and emphasize the proper use of units.
Nearly 2,000 problems, including design, computer, essay, and lab-type problems, provide an opportunity for review and a chance to apply the concepts. They also encourage students to make judgements, communicate, and conduct independent searches.
Safety awareness is promoted through the use of safety-related problems.
Engineering Equation Solver (EES) is an all-new software program that allows students to solve design problems and ask "what if" questions. This program includes a user-friendly equation solver and enables the student to perform parametric and optimization studies and display the results in tabular and graphical forms. Most of the property data needed for solving heat transfer problems are provided. The program also allows the user to input property data or functional relationships. The EES engine is available at a special discount to those who adopt the text with the Problems Disk.
Engineering Equation Solver Software Problems Disk has on-line help and contains EES programs that have been developed to solve some of the problems in the book. These programs help students master important concepts without the calculational burden previously required.
Both the SI and English units of measurement are included, with an emphasis on SI. The problems repeated in different systems are now deleted.
