Most heat transfer texts include the same material: conduction, convection, and radiation. How the material is presented, how well the author writes the explanatory and descriptive material, and the number and quality of practice problems is what makes the difference. Even more important, however, is how students receive the text. Engineering Heat Transfer, Third Edition provides a solid foundation in the principles of heat transfer, while strongly emphasizing practical applications and keeping mathematics to a minimum.

New in the Third Edition:
Coverage of the emerging areas of microscale, nanoscale, and biomedical heat transfer
Simplification of derivations of Navier Stokes in fluid mechanics
Moved boundary flow layer problems to the flow past immersed bodies chapter
Revised and additional problems, revised and new examples
PDF files of the Solutions Manual available on a chapter-by-chapter basis
The text covers practical applications in a way that de-emphasizes mathematical techniques, but preserves physical interpretation of heat transfer fundamentals and modeling of heat transfer phenomena
