Product Description: This is a book of two parts. The first six chapters are relatively general. They describe something of the history of English spelling and the factors that have brought so many irregularities to our language. The author argues that the irregular spelling of English is one factor in the disgracefully high rate of illiteracy in the English speaking world, and he describes attempts to reform the spelling of other languages...read more

Heat transfer plays an important role in almost every field of engineering. Presented here is a unique collection of papers on experimental, theoretical and numerical investigations of fundamental and applied features in the fields of boiling, evaporation and two-phase flow, cooling of electronics, heat transport affected by electromagnetic fields, and thermal radiation. Fundamental studies focusing on understanding the mechanisms of heat transfer processes as well as valuable results and formulas for engineering design are provided. The book will serve as a valuable source of data and of recent progress in the understanding and prediction of various heat transfer phenomena. Since it not only presents a novel collection of qualified works in established fields but also in topics not commonly studied, it will be of value to researchers, engineers and those involved in mechanical, chemical and nuclear engineering.

This book provides a solid foundation in the principles of heat and mass transfer and shows how to solve problems by applying modern methods. The basic theory is developed systematically, exploring in detail the solution methods to all important problems. The revised second edition incorporates state-of-the-art findings on heat and mass transfer correlations. The book will be useful not only to upper- and graduate-level students, but also to practicing scientists and engineers. Many worked-out examples and numerous exercises with their solutions will facilitate learning and understanding, and an appendix includes data on key properties of important substances.
