Heat Transfer in Single and Multiphase Systems

Offers coverage of heat transfer fundamentals and the range of multiphase phenomena, including boiling, condensation, solidification, and droplet flows. This book examines single- and multi-phase heat transfer, heat exchangers, and computational methods and discusses terminology, flow classifications, and two-phase flow maps.
Extensively revised and thoroughly updated, this popular text de-emphasizes high level mathematics in favor of effective, accurate modeling. Real-world examples amplify the theory and show how to use derived equations to model physical problems. Exercises that parallel the examples build readers' confidence and prepare them to confront the more complex situations they encounter as professionals.
