Solution Heat Transfer a Textbook

This book demonstrates the analytical solution of fundamental problems in heat transfer which covers conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer. The analytical solution of heat transfer problems is described in a simple way which is easy to understand. This book also provides competence of solving fundamental heat transfer problems by analytical method which is particularly important to gain a strong background on heat transfer.

This graduate textbook is concerned with both the formulation and the solution of radiation heat transfer problems in enclosures. The book is essentially self-contained and includes a brief historical survey. The foundations are carefully discussed from the point of view of the exact mathematical basis of boundary value problems and their variational solutions as well as of the physical foundations. The computational methods developed by the authors are used in engineering applications. The combinaton of exact mathematical modelling with numerical skills makes this a unique textbook.
