Fundamentals of Engineering Heat and Mass Transfer

This text is meant to fill a long felt need for a comprehensive and authoritative book on heat and mass transfer for students of Mechanical / Chemical/Aeronautical/Production/Metallurgical engineering. The dual objective of understanding the physical phenomena involved and the ability to formulate and solve typical problems by an average student has been kept in mind while writing this book. In this text, an effort has been made to identify the similarities in both qualitative and quantitative approach, between heat transfer and mass transfer. This would help in better understanding of the phenomena of mass transfer which is generally thought to be a bit difficult to read. Key Features: - New edition in multi-colour with improvised figures - Dual objective method is adopted for both theoretical and practical purpose - Qualitative and quantitative approach to identify between heat and mass transfer - Properly designed experiments to reinforce the teaching of basic principles
