FEATURES Heat and Mass Transfer:
A Practical Approach, Third Edition
by Yunus A. Çengel
~50% of the problems are new or revised to this edition.
Nearly 250 Fundamentals of Engineering Exam Problems have been added to the end of chapters.
Mathematical details of analytical solutions of 1-D transient heat conduction have been added.
Select "Guest Authors" have been chosen to contribute content to various topics such as Transitional Flow and Micro-scale Heat Transfer.
Chapters on Refrigeration and the Freezing of Foods, Heating and Cooling of Buildings and Cooling of Electronic Equipment can be found on the Online Learning Center.
The Appendix chapter An Introduction to EES has been placed on the EES CD-ROM and the Online Learning Center.
A list of helpful web links have been added to the Online Learning Center.
A list of chapter objectives have been added to the beginning of each chapter.
Nomenclature has been updated to be consistent with Cengel's Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics.
The text and its solutions manual have been carefully checked for accuracy.
Radiation is covered in two chapters instead of one.
Electronic Solutions Manual. The detailed solutions for all text problems will be delivered via COSMOS, our Complete Online Solution Manual Organization System. COSMOS helps you to quickly find solutions and also keeps a record of problems assigned to avoid duplication in subsequent semesters.
EES (Engineering Equation Solver) CD-ROM packaged free with text. EES is a powerful equation solver with built-in functions and property tables for thermodynamics and transport properties as well as automatic unit checking capability.
More than 1000 illustrations. This text has a sensational visual appeal that highlight its key learning features.
Complete coverage of the the essential heat transfer topic, convection. Forced convection is covered in three chapters with separate chapters for external flow and internal flow.
A "Topics of Special Interest" feature is included at the end of most chapters.
Approximately 2,000 Homework Problems including design, computer, essay, lab-type and FE problems are included. 50% of the problems are new or revised to this edition.
Numerous worked examples with sketches, step-by- step procedures, and process diagrams.
Safety awareness is promoted through the use of safety-related problems.
Both SI and English units of measurement are included, with an emphasis on SI.
Comprehensive computer problems are included. Students can plot the key variables and generate results by using the powerful and intuitive Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software tool (or other suitable programs). CD packaged free with the text. EES is a powerful, yet easy to use equation solver with built in functions and property tables for thermo and transport properties as well as automatic unit checking ability
A list of helpful web links and lecture slides have been added to the text's web site at http://www.mhhe.com/cengel.
Offers unique physics-based approach using real-world, everyday applications to lead students through heat transfer concepts
