A completely updated edition of the acclaimed single-volume reference for heat transfer and the thermal sciences This Second Edition of Handbook of Numerical Heat Transfer covers the basic equations for numerical method calculations regarding heat transfer problems and applies these to problems encountered in aerospace, nuclear power, chemical processes, electronic packaging, and other related areas of mechanical engineering. As with the first edition, this complete revision presents comprehensive but accessible coverage of the necessary formulations, numerical schemes, and innovative solution techniques for solving problems of heat and mass transfer and related fluid flows. Featuring contributions from some of the most prominent authorities in the field, articles are grouped by major sets of methods and functions, with the text describing new and improved, as well as standard, procedures. Handbook of Numerical Heat Transfer, Second Edition includes: * Updated coverage of parabolic systems, hyperbolic systems, integral-and integro-differential systems, Monte Carlo and perturbation methods, and inverse problems * Usable computer programs that allow quick applications to aerospace, chemical, nuclear, and electronic packaging industries * User-friendly nomenclature listings include all the symbols used in each chapter so that chapter-specific symbols are readily available

This book evolved from contributions of various experts who presented their thoughts developed over many years of teaching and research. The idea of this book is to present the various research domains of heat transfer in which work is ongoing. The work includes heat transfer augmentation techniques, MHD, fuel cells, solar systems, nano fluids, etc. This book is intended for research students, PG students and industry professionals. Heat transfer is a very broad subject so the selection of chapters is made in accordance with the need to cover the majority of topics dealt with in heat transfer and focus is placed on areas where the availability of literature is limited compared to other topics. We welcome feedback from readers that will improve the subsequent edition of this book.
