Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer
|
The standard for mastering heat and mass transfer
Respected for
its readability, comprehensiveness, and relevance, Incropera and
DeWitt’s text is the recognized standard for learning heat and mass
transfer. This text combines detailed coverage with the resources
students need to learn the concepts and apply them to solving realistic
and relevant problems. Using a rigorous and systematic problem-solving
methodology, the text is filled with examples and problems that reveal
the richness and beauty of the discipline.
The 6th Edition
introduces coauthors Ted Bergman and Adrienne Lavine, who bring their
record of success in teaching and research in heat and mass transfer to
the text.
New Features
