Contents:
chapter 1 Introduction -- chapter 2 Mathematical Description of Physical Phenomena -- chapter 3 Discretization Methods -- chapter 4 Heat Conduction -- chapter 5 Convection and Diffusion -- chapter 6 Calculation of The Flow Field -- chapter 7 Finishing Touches -- chapter 8 Special Topics -- chapter 9 Illustrative Applications.
Scope and content: "This book focuses on heat and mass transfer, fluid flow, chemical reaction, and other related processes that occur in engineering equipment, the natural environment, and living organisms. Using simple algebra and elementary calculus, the author develops numerical methods for predicting these processes mainly based on physical considerations. Through this approach, readers will develop a deeper understanding of the underlying physical aspects of heat transfer and fluid flow as well as improve their ability to analyze and interpret computed results."--Provided by publisher.
