This text is the outcome of an attempt to have a textbook for a practically oriented heat transfer course for engineering students. The text covers the standard topics of heat transfer with an emphasis on physics and real-world applications. This approach is more in line with students’ intuition, and makes learning the subject matter enjoyable.
This text is the outcome of an attempt to have a textbook for a practically oriented heat transfer course for engineering students. Through it's careful explanations of concepts and use of numerous practical examples and figures, Heat and Mass Transfer helps the students develop the necessary skills to bridge the gap between knowledge and the confidence for proper application of that knowledge.

Salient Features:

- The text covers the standard topics of heat transfer with an emphasis on physics and real-world applications.This approach is more in line with students’ intuition, and makes learning the subject matter enjoyable.
- Leads students toward a clear understanding and firm grasp of the basic principles of heat transfer so that he or she can understand even the most complex problems, formulate them, and interpret the results.
- New coverage of heat transfer in Biological Systems and expanded coverage of mini nad micro tubes.
