This textbook presents the classical topics of conduction heat transfer and extends the coverage to include chapters on perturbation methods, heat transferin living tissue, and microscale conduction. This makes the book unique amongthe many published textbook on conduction heat transfer. Other noteworthy features of the book are: The material is organized to provide students with the tools to model, analyze and solve a wide range of engineering applications involving conduction heat transfer. Mathematical techniques are presented in a clear and simplified fashion to be used as instruments in obtaining solutions. The simplicity of one-dimensional conduction is used to drill students in the role of boundary conditions and to explore a variety of physical conditions that are of practical interest. Examples are carefully selected to illustrate theapplication of principles and the construction of solutions. Established textbook introducing into fundamentals, physical phenomena, and mathematical modeling of a wide range of engineering applications. Includes two unique chapters on Perturbation Solutions and Heat Transfer in Living Tissue Provides many examples, exercises, and homework helpers A solution manual can be provided to Professors INDICE: Basic Concepts.- One-Dimensional Steady-State Condiction.- Two-Dimensional Steady-State Condiction.- Transient Conduction.- Porous Media.- Conduction with Phase Change: Moving Boundary Problems.- Non-Linear Conduction Problems.- Non-Linear Condtion Problems.- Approximate Solution: Intragral Method.-Perturbation Solutions.- Heat Transfer in Living Tissue.
