Handbook of Numerical Heat Transfer

A completely updated edition of the acclaimed single-volumereference for heat transfer and the thermal sciences

This Second Edition of Handbook of Numerical Heat Transfer coversthe basic equations for numerical method calculations regardingheat transfer problems and applies these to problems encountered inaerospace, nuclear power, chemical processes, electronic packaging,and other related areas of mechanical engineering. As with thefirst edition, this complete revision presents comprehensive butaccessible coverage of the necessary formulations, numericalschemes, and innovative solution techniques for solving problems ofheat and mass transfer and related fluid flows.

Featuring contributions from some of the most prominent authoritiesin the field, articles are grouped by major sets of methods andfunctions, with the text describing new and improved, as well asstandard, procedures. Handbook of Numerical Heat Transfer, SecondEdition includes:
* Updated coverage of parabolic systems, hyperbolic systems,integral-and integro-differential systems, Monte Carlo andperturbation methods, and inverse problems
* Usable computer programs that allow quick applications toaerospace, chemical, nuclear, and electronic packagingindustries
* User-friendly nomenclature listings include all the symbols usedin each chapter so that chapter-specific symbols are readilyavailable
