Principios de Transferencia de Calor

Description

Principios de transferencia de Calor fue publicado en 1959 y desde entonces ha crecido hasta ser considerado como un clasico dentro del campo, estableciendo las normas para la cobertura y la organizacion dentro de todos los otros textos de transferencia de calor. El libro esta disenado para un curso de un semestre en transferencia de calor en el nivel universitario o de posgrado, sin embargo, se le ha proporcionado flexibilidad en la pedagogia. Tras varias recomendaciones de la Comision ASME de educacion en transferencia de calor, Kreith, Manglik y Bohn presentan este pertinente y estimulante contenido con un enfoque fresco y completo, reconociendo que hoy en dia en el mundo de soluciones matematicas clasicas a problemas de transferencia de calor son a menudo menos influyentes que el analisis computacional. Este reconocimiento se une con el enfasis con el que los estudiantes todavia deben aprender a apreciar la fisica y la elegancia de la matematica simple para hacer frente a fenomenos complejos, con el objetivo de presentar los principios de la transferencia de calor en el marco de las matematicas clasicas y correlaciones empiricas.

Dr. Mark S. Bohn is the former vice president of engineering, president of Rentech Services Corporation, and co-founder of Rentech, Inc. Dr. Raj. M. Manglik is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering in the College of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Cincinnati in Ohio. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He is a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and a senior member of both the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). He has received many honors and recognitions for seminal research, teaching and educational enterprise, and professional engineering service. His areas of interest are enhancement of heat transfer, interfacial and transport phenomena, and thermal science and energy engineering. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Enhanced Heat Transfer. Dr. Frank Kreith is a Professor Emeritus in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Colorado in Boulder. He received his Ph.D. in Applied Science from the University of Paris in 1965. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), a Fellow and Honorary Member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), and recipient of the ASME Medal. The ASME International established "The Frank Kreith Energy Award" in 2005 in recognition of his contributions to the field of renewable energy and heat transfer. His areas of interest include heat transfer, thermal engineering, and solar engineering. He has been a consultant in the field of heat transfer engineering in many parts of the world.
