INDEX.

This version of Heat Transfer and accompanying Problems Manual and Heat Transfer Software were developed specifically for use in standard undergraduate engineering heat transfer courses.

Except for the less extensive treatment of convection featured in Chap. 11 and the Appendix, the contents of Heat Transfer2e (879 pp.) is the same as for Heat Transfer—Professional Version2e (1021 pp.).
