The thermal design of air-cooled heat exchangers is a fascinating activity--sometimes even more so than that of shell-and-tube heat exchangers--for the simple reason that there are more variables: even the coolant (air) flow rate is a variable! This book will have served its purpose if it can inspire the reader to consider the thermal design of air-cooled heat exchangers as a joyous activity rather than a mundane chore.
