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.

Product Description: to increase the use of direct contact processes, the National Science Foundation sup­ ported a workshop on direct contact heat transfer at the Solar Energy Research Insti­ tute in the summer of 1985. We served as organizers for this workshop, which em­ phasized an area of thermal engineering that, in our opinion, has great promise for the future, but has not yet reached the point of wide-spread commercial application...read more

Product Description: Electronic technology is developing rapidly and, with it, the problems associated with the cooling of microelectronic equipment are becoming increasingly complex. So much so that it is necessary for experts in the fluid and thermal sciences to become involved with the cooling problem...read more
