A revision of the classic reference originally authored by Kern and Kraus (McGraw-Hill, late 1960s) on the subject of extended surfaces.
Coverage of all facets of extended surface technology including, compact heat exchangers, periodic heat flow and boiling off finned surfaces.
Focus on the theory, design, and applications of a broad range of surface types.
Example problems used throughout to illustrate the use of expressions derived and/ or discussed in the text.
Addresses the fundamentals of extended surface analysis, including the implications of the Murray-Gardner assumptions, the analysis of single fins and analysis and optimization of finned arrays.
Application areas considered include finned passages, heat exchangers of various configurations, radiation effects, optimum designs, heat transfer with change of phase and augmentation.
