Principles of convective heat transfer.
Providing a comprehensive and concise treatment of convective heat transfer in single- and multiphase flows (with or without phase changes and reaction), this book in its second edition appeals to both students (at a graduate level) and researchers. After a carefully written and inviting introduction (including historical remarks), the book is divided into three parts and contains a total of 8 chapters. It aims at summarizing the role of the various mechanisms giving rise to convective heat transfer, discussing the differential equations, describing the appropriate approximation schemes and examining their solutions and applications. Extensive bibliographical data, citation and subject index as well as many illustrating figures, tables and charts make this book a useful and welcome reference. In the introductory chapter, molecular and continuum aspects of the thermophysical processes, phase transitions and multiphase flows are discussed. The governing conservation equations, the principles of space- and time averaging and local thermal equilibrium (or its lack among various phases) are discussed, and the need for simplification and approximation is addressed. The reader is assumed to be familiar with the basic concepts of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, including the mathematical concepts and tools needed in these fields. Part I is devoted to single-medium treatments and focuses on intraphase heat transfer (in single phase fluid flow, chapter 2) as well as interphase heat transfer (in two-phase systems with local thermal equilibrium, chapter 3). Among others, chapter 2 reviews compressible and reacting flows and addresses the role of turbulence and effects of an imposed electric or magnetic field on electrically conducting fluids. In case of two-phase systems, solid-fluid systems with stationary solid phase, and two-phase systems with both phases moving (as e.g. in dispersed flows) are considered. Part II deals with two-media transfers of two-phase flows. Solid-fluid systems with small (chapter 4) and large (chapter 5) volumetric interfaces as well as fluid-fluid systems (chapter 6) are discussed, treating e.g. particle suspensions, multicomponent solidification or the formation of droplets. Part III focuses on three-media transfers in solid-solid-fluid systems (chapter 7) and solid-liquid-gas systems (chapter 8). Examples where such transfers become relevant include e.g. heat exchange between fluidized beds and their bounding surfaces as encountered in geophysical processes such as (granular) avalanches.
