Physical and Computational Aspects of Convective Heat Transfer [Paperback]

From the reviews: The book has a broad and general coverage of both the mathematics and the numerical methods well suited for graduate students. Applied Mechanics Reviews #1 This is a very well written book. The topics are developed with separate headings making the matter easily understandable. Computer programs are also included for many problems together with a separate chapter dealing with the application of computer programs to heat transfer problems. This enhances the utility of the book.
