The demand for efficient thermal management has increased substantially over the last decade in every imaginable area, be it a formula 1 racing car suddenly braking to decelerate from 200 to 50 mph going around a sharp corner, a space shuttle entering the earth’s atmosphere, or an advanced microprocessor operating at a very high speed. The temperatures at the hot junctions are extremely high …
In this revised edition of our book we retained its concept: The main emphasis is placed on the fundamental principles of heat and mass transfer and their application to practical problems of process modelling and the apparatus design. Like the first edition, the second edition contains five chapters and several appendices, particularly a compilation of thermophysical property data needed…
