  • eBook:Heat Transfer Modeling

    Heat Transfer Modeling

    An Inductive Approach
    George Sidebotham
    978-3-319-14514-3
    2015
    Edition 1
    • Adopts a novel inductive pedagogy where commonly understood examples are introduced early and theory is developed to explain and predict readily recognized phenomena
    • Introduces new techniques as needed to address specific problems, in contrast to traditional texts’ use of a deductive approach, where abstract general principles lead to specific examples
    • Elucidates readers’ understanding of the 'heat transfer takes time' idea—transient analysis applications are introduced first and steady-state methods are shown to be a limiting case of those applications
    • Focuses on basic numerical methods rather than analytical methods of solving partial differential equations, largely obsolete in light of modern computer power
    • Maximizes readers’ insights to heat transfer modeling by framing theory as an engineering design tool, not as a pure science, as has been done in traditional textbooks
    • Integrates practical use of spreadsheets for calculations and provides many tips for their use throughout the text examples
