Solution of Problems in Heat Transfer

This book aims to give students of engineering a thorough grounding in the subject of heat transfer. The book is comprehensive in its coverage without sacrificing the necessary theoretical details. The book is designed as a complete course text in heat transfer for degree courses in mechanical and production engineering and combined studies courses in which heat transfer and related topics are an important part of the curriculum. Students on technician diploma and certificate courses in engineering will also find the book suitable although the content is deeper than they might require. The entire book has been thoroughly revised and a large number of solved examples and additional unsolved problems have been added. This book contains comprehensive treatment of the subject matter in simple and direct language. I would like to express my appreciation of the assistance which I have received from my colleagues in the teaching profession. I am particularly indebted to Professor Mahmoud Yassin Osman for his advice on the preparation of this textbook. When author, printer and publisher have all done their best, some errors may still remain. I will be glad to receive any corrections.
