Pop Ioan I., Ingham Derek B. Convective Heat Transfer: Mathematical and Computational Modelling of Viscous Fluids and Porous Media

1 edition. Elsevier Science & Technology Books, 2001. 648 p. ISBN: 0080438784The book is a unified progress report which captures the spirit of the work in progress in boundary-layer heat transfer research and also identifies potential difficulties and areas for further study. In addition, this work provides new material on convective heat and mass transfer, as well as a fresh look at basic methods in heat transfer. Extensive references are included in order to stimulate further studies of the problems considered. A state-of-the-art picture of boundary-layer heat transfer today is presented by listing and commenting also upon the most recent successful efforts and identifying the needs for further research.Convective Flows: Viscous Fluids
