Fundamentals of Engineering Heat and Mass Transfer (SI Units)

Key Features:Y New edition in multi-colour with improvised figuresY Dual objective method is adopted for both theoretical and practical purposeY Qualitative and quantitative approach to identify between heat and mass transferY Properly designed experiments to reinforce the teaching of basic principles.About the Book:This text is meant to fill a long felt need for a comprehensive and authoritative book on heat and masstransfer for students of Mechanical/Chemical/Aeronautical/Production/Metallurgical engineering. Thedual objective of understanding the physical phenomena involved and the ability to formulate and solvetypical problems by an average student has been kept in mind while writing this book. In this text, an efforthas been made to identify the similarities in both qualitative and quantitative approach, between heattransfer and mass transfer. This would help in better understanding of the phenomena of mass transfer whichis generally thought to be a bit difficult to read.The subject matter has been developed from scratch to a sufficiently advanced stage in a logical andcoherent manner with neat illustrations along with an adequate number of solved examples. A fairly largenumber of problems (with answers) at the end of each chapter will be exciting for both the teacher and thetaught to have brain storming discussion in the class.The book has been appended with a set of selected MCQs along with its key. The role of experimentation inthe teaching of heat and mass transfer is well established. Properly designed experiments reinforce theteaching of basic principles more thoroughly. Keeping this in mind, one full chapter comprising 12 typicalexperiments forms another special feature of this text.
